   Hi, I've been having a problem with being able to view previews of Vimeo & YouTube embeds on my self hosted wordpress blog at http://www.directorsnotes.com.

   I always write posts in html mode so if I have the following for example:

   The Vimeo embed

   <iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/27127177?portrait=0&color=009900" width="750" height="422" frameborder="0"></iframe><p>Mac 'n' Cheese from Mac 'N' Cheese on Vimeo.</p>

   and an unrelated YouTube video

   <iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/8B5GP0AiQMc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

   On preview it displays as: https://skitch.com/marbelle/fxj4n/no-embeds

   however once the post is published or if I navigate using the 'Post draft updated. Preview post' link the videos display correctly. This is an issue in both Google Chrome 13.0.782.112 and Safari 5.1 - I'm not sure which WordPress update broke it, but previews used to work fine.

   Thanks
   MarBelle

   MarBelle, I'm having the same problem. Did you ever find a solution?

   Nope never did, so instead I started using Marsedit - http://www.red-sweater.com/marsedit/ to compose posts locally.
