 * It seems that youtube has updated their URLs and do not resemble those in the
   description of the plugin anymore.
 * I have the plugin activated and when I post (with the v) into my post, it just
   shows up as plain text.

 * I just started using Smart YouTube. I’ve run into that behavior a couple of times,
   but it is simply because I had the plugin deactivated. If your plugin is activated,
   you may have other issues, such as broken includes (js libraries, etc.). But 
   I don’t know what Smart YouTube does under the hood, so I’m only speculating.
 * Try a fresh install of the twenty-ten theme. Then install the Smart YouTube plugin
   see if it works.

 * I’m having a different problem with SmartYoutube as well.
    My videos aren’t showing
   up but a side and bottom scroll (where the video would be) appear.
 * Scrolling L, R, U, or D, there’s nothing. All was working well, then I upgraded
   the plugin, nada.
 * Then I figured it wasn’t compatible with my older version on WordPress, so I 
   upgraded to the latest, nothing. I deactivated and reactivated, same disappointment.
   Then I deactivated, deleted the plugin, and re-installed…zip.
 * How do I fix this issue? Here’s an example: [http://www.sirindie.com/reviews/movies/transformers-3-teaser/](http://www.sirindie.com/reviews/movies/transformers-3-teaser/)
 * Any help is appreciated.
