 > @adamsilverstein: The shortcode function won't work for testing here
 because you're not in a normal Loop and so there is no global $post
 context setup. The shortcode expects there to be a $post because it uses
 the post_meta to do caching of the oembed result. This is to prevent it
 from retrieving the info from the remote URL every time. Additionally, you
 have to use a real working YouTube URL for it to actually get anything
 back, a fake URL won't have valid response data.

 Great! Thank you for the detailed response. I think I tried wp_oembed_get
 along the way, maybe missed the piece about requiring a valid URL.  I will
 give it another shot...
