I'm getting this error when adding a video review for a few days and have met it before. What is the problem?

So, nobody else is experiencing this problem? I am adding a normal Youtube video url like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEQJ3KpkQnc in video review section, but it ends with an error.

I'll just keep talking to myself. Here is a printscreen of an error. http://imghost.in/img/2013-04/09/6apm130s8cq3ubf1q2olb23sz.png

BTW, if i put just the ending part of the url "=rEQJ3KpkQnc", website accepts the video - but it is empty.

@Veltnar
I found it, the problem is that you're not trying to add a normal url, but a secured url https
It accepts http://www.youtube.com, it accepts www.youtube.com, but not https://www.youtube.com

just submit www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEQJ3KpkQnc or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEQJ3KpkQnc

I've been succesful to submit this videoreview to my own reviews for SKU177580 twice, both with caption "Made by Veltnar"
Can @LAL please remove those videoreviews from me as I didn't make them obviously? ;)

Thanks for trying to help, but the problem solved itself a pair days ago, still doesn't know the reason. It is not about https, because i was able to add video this way. I met this error before, but it lasted for few hours, last time i was unable to add video for about a week.

I suspect that it is somehow connected to DX staff actions. I asked to approve some reviews of mine which were pending for too long before. And so now it just start working again...

I doubt it, because the https also posed a problem for me.
Try next time again with the https, and again with just http...you'll see ;)
