Cutting & Pasting YouTube URL from Safari into Pages

Hello everyone! When I copy and paste a YouTube URL from Safari into Pages, it automatically embeds the video into the document and is playable. I only want to paste the actual URL and not have the embedding. How do I turn on or off this embedding feature in Pages? Thanks.

How do I restore the old youtube layout in safari My layout has suddenly changed to a 4 large vid grid across the screen. I prefer the older style grid of the smaller vids. I can’t find a way in the settings to change back to the older style. Any suggestions?

Stopping the overlay controls from disappearing in streamed video in Safari Is it possible to keep the video overlay controls visible when watching streamed video in Safari, instead of the overlay controls disappearing after a few seconds? I am using some streaming videos to learn a language and I need to repeat brief segments from the video quickly. You can do this by leaving the cursor over the required timeline point on the overlay and just clicking the mouse. But this doesn't work if the segment is more than a few seconds long and the overlay controls have disappeared. If that happens, you have to jiggle the mouse to get the overlay back, then click on the point you want - but that has the effect of stopping the stream, so you have to then start the stream again and re-position the cursor. I hope this request is clear.

Visit Pages Settings > General for the controls to make it a URL and not a video.
