This code always works for me:


<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350" data="
http://www.youtube.com/v/YOUTUBEVIDEO"><param name="wmode"
value="transparent" /><param name="movie" value="
http://www.youtube.com/v/YOUTUBEVIDEO" /></object>

It works with all flv videos (just make sure the width and height are
adjusted for google video etc or it won't show). The value="transparent"
means that if you use lightbox to display images, they won't show up
underneath the video.
