This is something that I really enjoyed about the previous version of MDL. It gives users a chance to showcase their favorite songs/playlists/videos when someone visits their page. It's also an extra way to personalize your profile. 

 Along the same wavelength, it would be nice to have the option to resize the YouTube videos on our profile in the same fashion you can do with gifs and photos. A simple click and drag option would be nice for those who aren't tech-savvy. 

Thank you!!

There is already a ticket (or two) opened on this.  I definitely want this too and second your wish!  But, @Ji-N has told us already that there is a security risk/problem when allowing for the youtube embedding sytax in HTML5.    Until there is a solution for this security issue,  there won't be support for autoplay or any other parameters going forward.  

Whoops, didn't realize that. Thanks for letting me know:)
