When you go to the youtube video click "Share" then use the code under the "embed" option.

That didn't help. There's this thing called Disable HTML and it's checked. I un-checked it, saved the post and it still had no changes.

So to make sure you have it to allow both HTML and BBCode and you've tried both
(replaing {url} with your url and making sure there are NO spaces between the youtube tags and the url)
And using the embed code that you can find with any youtube vid?
Code should look something like this (obviously the url will be different)
Code:
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/5W-yS6IcJO0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
