The most frequent (and wrong) way for people to do this is by clicking at the add video button at the editing post page and pasting the exact URL of the Youtube, and then you see no video on your preview. The right way to do it is by click at the HTML mode of your editing page and paste the embedded code provided by Youtube. The embedded code can be easily obtained at the video page of Youtube. After pasting it on the HTML mode, you can click at the normal visual mode to see a yellow box that should appear. That would be where your video is located. You can then play the video from the preview page.
