So according to the description, using "<youtube>..." should also work, but it doesn't anymore. Now stuck with thousands of inactive embeds. Do I have to manually enable that somewhere?
Topic on Extension talk:EmbedVideo
opened an issue in gitlab for it, but doesnt seem to be very active there either
@OP: You sure your extension isn't broken/outdated or it's an issue with YT video you try to embed? I use EmbedVideo on a 1.35.x MediaWiki with the 1.35 master extension files currently and the <youtube width=450px></youtube> embed code still work for me.
it's the latest mediawiki with the latest version of the extension... not sure what to check to narrow down the problem...
Do you happen to use any other extension that uses a <youtube> hook?
no
Mine went funky as well and can be viewed at www.liberty.wiki . Getting this error:

what bugs me also is that their gitlab thing is dead as disco, i mean hardly any issues get answers at all... and that even though it has evolved into a quasi monopoly extension for this use case
I use the Star Citizen fork instead by now because that one is GDPR-compliant and which is maintained.
