Is that a limitation of iFrames?

Does adding the port number help i.e.

Yep, just did a test and I got one to play using HTTPS, it must be the iFrame thing. I couldn’t get anything from youtube, google, or vimeo to play, but a video placed on my own server did.

Google stopped allowing people to embed their video content in iFrames as it allowed people to bypass Google’s advertising and add their own.
