 * This plugin is great, but I have one issue that is inconsistent with the description.
 * > You don’t need to use embed code or a shortcode, you can simply paste the YouTube
   > or Vimeo URL into your post and it should work.
 * When embedding a video, I have to use the shortcode for it to work. Otherwise
   the video does not get wrapped correctly and embeds way outside of my div.
 * I am trying to make updating sites as simple as possible for everyone who is 
   updating sites on our multisite install, so it would be a lot easier if they 
   didn’t have to remember to use the shortcode all the time.

 * Make sure there is white space between the lines the URL is on.
    Jetpack may 
   cause issues with this plugin as it attempts to do similar things.
