Retrieving "Invalid URL" When Embedding Vimeo [Broken]

    I’m trying to embed a Vimeo vid to a post on my blog at http://www.kontactproductions.com

    I’ve used several plugins to achieve this including Vimeo Short Code (Ver 1 and 1.1) and Simple Vimeo Shortcode. Both of which return Invalid URL within an iframe.

    Additionally I tried using the embed code from the Vimeo website itself and have returned the same message:

    Invalid URL

    The requested URL “/video/40745347?autoplay=1”, is invalid.
    Reference #9.77440317.1335914168.e184234

    Here is the code I used to get this:

    <iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/40745347?autoplay=1" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen></iframe>

    I’m pretty stumped as I can’t find any other threads around the web pertaining to this. Any help would be awesome!

    EDIT: realized after this post that I hadn’t updated to 3.3.1 yet. Updated and the embed code works.

    EDIT 2: I wanted to move the video above my text… as soon as I moved the code and updated the publishing it broke again and is showing the same error.
