#45853 new defect (bug)

Videos embedded in a plugins readme.txt does not load while searching for a plugin in an actual WP install (not wp.org)

Description

If you embed a video within your plugins readme.txt file it only shows the video on the wp.org website, videos do not load when you're searching for a plugin via an actual WordPress install. In addition, if you install a plugin and click on "View Details" to learn more about the plugin, the video also does not load here either. Inspect element shows an empty span tag:

<span class="embed-youtube"></span>

This should either embed the video or at the least display a link to the video.

Here's an example plugin for reference: https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-icons/

Hi there welcome to wordpress trac! thanks for the report.
Replying to thememason:

I don't really get this one, can you explain more?

In addition, if you install a plugin and click on "View Details" to learn more about the plugin, the video also does not load here either. Inspect element shows an empty span tag:

<span class="embed-youtube"></span>

This should either embed the video or at the least display a link to the video.

I'm able to reproduce this one.
