Description
This is around line 74. Youtube is already correct.
The line with param name="wmode" should be changed to:
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
#1
oh, that was in the google.inc file.
#2
Can you explain what the problem is with the current file, i.e. why it needs to be changed?
#3
Sure. If a drop down menu or other floating div floats over the media it will not display. For yahoo vids this isn't a problem because the wmode is set to transparent. Google's wmode is not, thus the problem.

I'm having this same problem with a Vimeo embedded video. I tried adding this line:
$output .= '<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />';at line 157 in contrib/video_cck/providers/vimeo.inc, but it doesn't seem to have fixed the problem. You can see the first drop down menu falling behind the video player on the front page of this site:

The code in #8 worked when I inserted it into vimeo.inc at line 156 instead of line 157:
$output .= '<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />';I don't have an easy way to roll a patch at the moment, but one should be created using this code for contrib/video_cck/providers/vimeo.inc
