Embedded YouTube Videos Not Playing

Embedded YouTube Videos Not Playing

Moodle version: 2.9

Browser: Safari and Google Chrome

Theme: Express 

All of my embedded YouTube videos have completely stopped functioning as of yesterday (July 18). They all played perfectly prior to this. Besides a few grammar and spelling changes to individual pages, I haven't changed anything in the course. I've tried: 

-refreshing the page

-using a different browser

-removing and replacing the video link 

Why did these videos suddenly stop working and how can I fix the problem?

Thanks!

Something changed... possibly with YouTube.

Are you embedding using the YouTube repository or some other method?

What doesn't help is that you are now running an unsupported version of Moodle. Is there any chance you can upgrade? That would at least remove one variable.
