How to disable YouTube (and any other oembed) embeding in the editor
The quick way to disable oEmbeds would be add_filter( ‘pre_oembed_result’, ‘__return_false’ ); If you want to disable it for all external links then try: /** * Disable oEmbeds for external links */ add_filter( ‘pre_oembed_result’, function( $result, $url, $args ) { if( parse_url( home_url(), PHP_URL_HOST ) !== parse_url( $url, PHP_URL_HOST ) ) $result = false; return … Read more
Responsive embed for the video shortcode
You could create a new callback for the embed_oembed_html filter and target the third input argument, the oembed $url. Then you could e.g. create boolean helper functions like (untested): function is_oembed_from_video_specific_hosts_wpse274552( $url ) { return in_array( parse_url( $url, PHP_URL_HOST ), [ ‘youtube.com’, ‘youtu.be’, ‘vimeo.com’, // … etc ], true ); } or a more detailed … Read more

You could try using WP_Embed::shortcode( array $attr, string $url=”” ) instead of wp_oembed_get as this would mimic what happens with the native post types and the filter … Read more
