Updated Training Video - Embed YouTube Video in WordPress
Changes afoot at YouTube 'cos they've finally figured out that websites are becoming responsive.
Yes, they've taken away the list of sizes to choose from which looks like it's a problem but it isn't.

Hi Marion,
You do lovely training. Thank you for this and all the other wonderful training you provide. You are a gem.
I have a question for you about previously embedded YouTube videos.
Do you know if videos that we have embeded in the past will automatically convert to becoming responsive or will we have to fix this ourselves?
Also if we have pre-set an aspect ratio to be in an exact size will that size stay or will it now become full screen to match the device?
Tough questions I know. Thanks Marion. Cheers.
Not really tough questions Glenys.
I noticed that all my existing videos were going full screen but thought it was the theme I'm using or that I'd chosen the right display size. It was only when I tried to embed a video a couple of days ago that I noticed that YouTube had changed.
I've checked my old videos and they're the same as the new ones on other websites using different themes. So there's nothing that needs to be changed, it's happened automatically. As long as your theme is responsive there's nothing more to do for the existing videos.
Thank you, Marion. Appreciate the training. I have not done this yet but it is something I have planned.
