Title: Re: . How to copy a youtube video embedded in somebody elses post or web site

You can't copy somebody else's youtube embed and re-embed it on another forum without doing some work. 

You need to strip the embed info from the link.  That means everything from the & on.  So you would strip the link down to look like this:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJDsH64sqNY

Then use the youtube embed button to wrap the above fixed link...
