Description
First of all thank you for this tool. It works great.
Unfortunately, we currently have an issue that a video is not embedded correctly. During our test of the website the video was set to private and therefore was not embedded (which I would say is correct).
We updated the setting of the video on Youtube to public now but still get a message "401 Not authorized" from nombed. It looks like that there is a Varnish Cache and we are wondering the cache gets updated or if it is another issue.
When we add a parameter (which has no function) to the URL it is working.
Can somebody help me on this?
Best wishes,
Hannes

Research direction
Reproduce the 401 response with the original YouTube URL, then compare it with the same URL after adding a query parameter. Start by tracing the noembed request through the Varnish cache and determine whether a privacy-setting change invalidates the cached response; done means the now-public video embeds without requiring a meaningless parameter.
