Comment (by dustintechsmith):

 We invested several cycles ensuring as we spun up new back end
 infrastructure to support Screencast that we allowed all of the original
 content to perform. We originally didn't want to spin up a subdomain but
 determined that was the only way to tackle a graceful transition. As such
 we custom built a proxy that will translate original screencast.com links
 to app.screencast.com targets. We have several customers complaining that
 we "broke" functionality in WordPress. However, every other application
 that unfurls or embeds content is still functioning. The content has not
 changes just merely the DNS resolution for the content is pointing at a
 subdomain of the original domain. This is taking it away from those users.
