Like the proverbial fly in your soup there is a bug in your video!

I had the very same problem and found the solution in a help thread. This was the response.

We're aware of an issue affecting videos embedded to Blogger Beta using the "Post to: Blogger" feature from the "Email - Blog - Post to MySpace" button, and are working to find a solution.

In the meantime, we suggest posting the video manually on Blogger. To manually post to Blogger, follow these steps:

1. Visit http://video.google.com and search for the video's title or for any unique elements located in the video's metadata or transcripts.
2. When you locate the video, click its thumbnail image or title, and then click on the "Email - Blog - Post to MySpace" button on the video's playback page.
3. From the "Edit HTML" section, copy the HTML code.
4. Log in to your Blogger account.
5. Select your blog and "Create new post."
6. Click the "Edit Html" tab.
7. Paste the "Embed" code from the desired video.
8. Preview and publish!

I think "in the meantime" they should remove the path that does not work to post Google and U Tube videos to your blog. This oversight is very Microsoft-esque, no? Only we are not accustomed to Google, being free, not working but we are accustomed to Microsoft, being expensive, not working. Only from America.

Also... did you know that videos do not reveal themselves in the RSS feed?
