Still is very strange why the video would show up in the single post, but not on the front page.

But hooray for happy endings!

Thanks for taking a look and apologies for my panic/frustration

That all makes good sense
Except i was doing that (pretty sure anyway)
and it was reverting back to being wrong (as in without the =)
But whatever you did it is now all working so..

Many thanks either way

The problem was a missing = sign in your embedding code.

For example, you had something like:

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ms4JLAKalYw&w=560&h=315]

...but that should have been:

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ms4JLAKalYw&w=560&h=315]

If you don't need to specify a width and height, you can also simply place the YouTube link in its own line, without the shortcode, like this:
<br /> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ms4JLAKalYw

Just let me know if you need any further assistance.

I'm taking a look at this issue now and will keep you posted.

That really is odd.

Video shows up in the single post.

But code on home page missing the right bracket (apparently).

Are you pasting it in the Visual or the Text Editor?

FWIW I've just tried pasting in both on my test blog without any problem.

Odd indeed!

What browser are you using?

all the posts were fine last night
and even when i go in and fix the shortcode (or completely re copy+paste it from yt) it just changes back to what you see?

odd isn't it...
