So I put a youtube video up on my website and it looks fine on a PC but when I open the same page on my iPhone the video has a giant black box behind it and won't play. Do I have to use a third party program to embed the video correctly?

It could be that the Youtube video that you selected is a Flash based video and since the iPhone cannot display Flash, you would get that black box. Try going to other videos on your iPhone and see if other videos display.

Is there a cure for that? Something easier than converting the video to something else, reposting it on youtube, then re-embed it?
