Doesn’t seem to let you put the video behind text or other data, but it doesn’t 
promise to do that . . .

Don’t let the reviews fool you, working pretty nice and simple. There isn’t really
any better alternative either. There is this one bug when the video from the block
is going to get removed if you edit the block and you will have to reselect it from
the wordpress library, but other than that it’s great.
