youtube video embedding inside jwplayer

I'm noticing that jwplayer works great for most youtube urls, but urls like this....
http://www.youtube.com/user/EducatorVids3?v=VeasFckfMHY

seem not to play properly. I get an error in the jwplayer which says
"Task queue failed at step 5: Playlist could not be loaded due to crossdomain restriction policies"

Using firefox with jwplayer version: 5.10.2295 (Licensed version)

Is there a way around this?

That isn’t a valid url for the YouTube API.

It should be like this – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VeasFckfMHY

This may be a silly question, can you play a youtube video on the jwplayer, where the video has "Embedding disabled by request" option set? When I tried it, it seems to go forever..

Thanks.

It can’t, because YouTube does not allow these videos to be played back through their API, which we use, when this option is set.
