    I have embedded my youtube video every which ways but sideways in my post. The video shows with the play arrow centered in white but will not play on any device — desktop or mobile. Tried every fix online I could find. Current embed is the embed code from youtube in the WP text editor. Tried the browser paste and youtube link paste in the visual editor, again with no success. Video showed but would not play Also tried [embed]…..[embed], and only the code showed. The youtube posts worked fine until the 4.3 upgrade.

    The issue is caused by a minus 3 z-index on your .hentry element, from your Child Theme style.css file.

    ..and it played in IE at -3? Thanks for the catch. fooling around with levels and forgot to delete the z-index from css.
