Why do you need a flash player to show youtube video? If no specific reason then, Just put this:

XML

<object width="425" height="350">
  <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/HvHOCqbA6rE">
  </param>
  <param name="wmode" value="transparent">
  </param>
  <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/HvHOCqbA6rE"
  type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent"
  width="425" height="350">
  </embed>
</object>
