   I have a WordPress blog stored on the WordPress.com. Then I've downloaded the WordPress 2.2.2 and installed it on my web server. It works great!. I've exported all the comments, posts, etc from the blog I've created on WordPress.com. After that I've imported it into the new blog on the new webserver. I've noticed that the YouTube videos didnt' show up. I can see only the following tag [youtube=...]. how can I make it work again?

   The way we post a video from youtube changed from the older version to this one?
   Do I have to install a plugin to make it work?
   If the way we post the video changed do we have to edit all the posts changing the [youtube=...] to the new way?

   Best Regards...

   I am experiencing the exact same problem. I tried to solve the problem with several plugins but there seems no clean way to enable YouTube video's to appear on my blog. Is this a know 2.2.2 bug and is it fixable?
