The easiest way to insert a YouTube video is to use the code that YouTube gives you.

For example, to embed the video found at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56wwReKpNBk

Underneath the video is a "Share" button. Clicking it gives me further options - I click "Embed". (See attached) This gives me a block of code in a text box that looks something like this:

 <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/56wwReKpNBk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Under that code there are some other options, like the dimensions of the video or whether you want it to show suggested videos after the video is done playing, and changing those options will affect the code it gives you.

Once you have that code you can simply paste it into the source of the page you want the video to appear on.
