Having tried a test post I have found it failed. I checked the permalink of the page I was posting it to and found:

http://gfp-forum.gfpanorama.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?new_topic

That suggests that the problem is that you have changed the domain name setting for your forum and the required script to process the contents of the embed cannot be found.

I'm not an expert on CNAME records and such related stuff, so I await one of the Nabble staff to advise.

As a work around I'd suggest that you re-set the domain name back to the Nabble default and use the "Redirect to" facility on the Embedding Options page. That ensures that people cannot break out of the embedding you put in place and video posts will definitely work as the script is handled by Nabble servers.

If that doesn't work for you I'd suggest you create a new topic on Domain name changes, as I sometimes find that long topics get overlooked by the Nabble team on the assumption that a solution to the problem will be reached.
