I tried it the following way, but sometimes I do not get video and sometimes it gets me a video link:

<?php

    $string = $post->post_content;

    $pattern = '/(http\S*(?=(?:&|\?)rel))/im';

    $array = array();

    preg_match($pattern, $string, $array);

    $link = $array[0];

    print '<video>'.$link.'</video>';

?>

The example of my content is like:

a simple 

preg_match_all('/https?\:\/\/(?:www\.)?(?:youtube\.com\/[^\s]*v\=|youtu\.be\/)([a-z0-9]+)/is', $input, $matches);

will output all youtube-links in your string. $input is the datasource $matches will return the matches in an array.
