Not embed video with "–" in the code

Good afternoon,
I used your plugin and I found a bug.
I want embed this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSi2JV–Auw
But your plugin read “SSi2JV–Auw” and it doesn’t embed it.
I fixed it! The solutions is:
File: youtube.php – line 697 and line 342:

$link = preg_replace('/\s/', '', $link);

replace with:

$link = preg_replace('/\s/', '', $link);
$link = str_replace('&#8211\;', '--', $link); //without "\" (this editor read html code)

I don’t know if it is the best solution.
Please fix this bug.
Thanks,

Valentina
