Essential grid stream from youtube doesn't show any controls

pachurch.ca, the “hear our stories” section

Here’s what I did. I created one grid using the EG option where I import the youtube videos manually from youtube using the video ID. That worked great. Then I duplicated that essential grid but changed it to a stream. I got the API connected properly and the video thumbnails show up properly, but there’s no controls, no play button, etc. The skins are identical so I don’t know why they would show up differently.

Actually I got it to work now, but now the videos show up funny. Some of them are positioned weird. This wasn’t a problem on the other grid.
