Have a look in admin->settings->content settings at the allowed resource list and add what you need accordingly, youtube should already be listed, make sure it is.
Are you using the embed option from your youtube video?

What dave said is correct. Allowed resources list is under Rich media settings on the Content Settings page.
But for YouTube, you'll need to embed the code for the video. You can get the code this way:
On a computer, go to the YouTube video you want to embed.
Under the video, click Share .
Click Embed.
From the box that appears, copy the HTML code.
Paste the code into the Oxwall field, Embed code, in the Add Video page.

If you still cant play normal video files then it could be a server issue. You may need to add the following to the top of your .htaccess file.
AddType video/ogg .ogg
AddType video/ogg .ogv
AddType video/ogg .ogm
AddType video/mp4 .mp4
AddType video/webm .webm
AddType video/x-m4v .m4v
AddType audio/webm .weba
Please let us know if you still need help and if not please share the solution to help others.
