 Interesting; it looks like the XHR request is failing with the status
 (blocked:mixed-content). Here are the headers- there is no response.

 Request URL:http://wp.local/search/wp-
 json/oembed/1.0/proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DrEg6oeazTNY&_wpnonce=eea4ecbabd&discover=false

 > @taijacg Hi! Would you please open the network console and look at the
 XHR HTTP request that is made after you paste in the YouTube URL? It
 should be making a request off to the oEmbed endpoint in the WP REST API.
 If that request fails then that might be a reason you are seeing the
 error. Please share the HTTP response from that request.
