The embedded video field works great. Together with the feed api it could allow one to automatically import youtube video as nodes from a youtube rss. There is one problem though:

It seems only to accept only youtube urls in the form:

http://youtube.com/watch/v/eQ8ZWMlObGE

and

http://youtube.com/watch?v=eQ8ZWMlObGE

and NOT in the form

http://youtube.com/?v=eQ8ZWMlObGE

The last form is the form youtube uses in its rss feeds (the link tag) :-(. Youtube is not very consequent, I know.

The solution to problem above is adding

'@youtube\.com/\?v=([^"\&]+)@i',

after line 154 in /modules/emfield/contrib/video_cck/providers/youtube.inc ;-)
