It’s not easy for security reasons. You can easily get the embed code for a youtube vid and post it on your site, but you don’t want to allow users to just post vids without some type of validation, otherwise everyone will write scripts to redirect the page, etc.
I would get the URL and validate it thoroughly. Maybe just parse out the video ID (eg iUZOEBDN3a4) and then reconstruct the embed code yourself using php.
The embed code will be something like this:
<iframe width="420" height="345" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/8I5JVl8u_Yw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>Then the if you want to share that with other users, say on a video sharing page, just save that code to an html file on your server, and load it to the view page using an include statement.
