Great question and an issue I just noticed and was out to find the solution.

I did find this quote in the iOS 6 release notes under the Safari/WebKit section:

As of iOS 6, embedded YouTube URLs in the form of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0 will no longer work. These URLs are for viewing the video on the YouTube site, not for embedding in web pages. Instead, the format that should be used is described here: https://developers.google.com/youtube/player_parameters.

Back over on google developer site it seems video player should be embedded by using an iframe, shouldn't be too much more work.

Hope that helps.

If you don't need straigh-forward auto-play, then you can perhaps use iframe with play button 

      <iframe height="90" width="75" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEOID"></iframe>

, when you press play button, fullscreen player takes over (at least for my apps in iOS 6)

If you compile app with older Base SDK 5.1 (5.0), any kind of old YouTube embedding should still work even in iOS 6. Like:

 <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEOID" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"     widht="64" height="64"></embed>
