In effect then I'd call that something pretty close to phasing out video.
While I don't know what programming platform this site is built on (nor should Alex tell us - that makes it prone for hacking) it seems like this should just need a piece of alternate script for handling https vs http. It's great that I can click on the shield and allow the script but that solves the problem for one person.
The whole site needed to be updated before defaulting to https.
For the Youtube problem in particular it is the code that embeds
the user Youtube content that needs to be updated.
If you look at the code below you will see it's creating http
links in the data and value fields.
An admin needs to fix this!
Code:
<p><object id="mov2wxmauwq" width="560" height="340" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/j7oTegOPJ6s?version=3&hl=en_US"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/j7oTegOPJ6s?version=3&hl=en_US"
Here is a proof of concept Tampermonkey script that is successfully
changing the data and value fields to https so that embedded
Youtube content is visible again.

el.innerHTML = el.innerHTML.replace(/data="http:/, 'data="https:');
}
var els1 = document.getElementsByTagName("p");
for(var k = 0, l1 = els1.length; k < l1; k++) {
var el1 = els1[k];
el1.innerHTML = el1.innerHTML.replace(/value="http:/, 'value="https:');
}
})();
