Create function like below:

function Loadvideo(catvideo){

//Get video ID from catvideo variable.
var videoid= catvideo.substring(catvideo.lastIndexOf('=')+1);
if(videoid == catvideo){
        var videoid= catvideo.substring(catvideo.lastIndexOf('/')+1);
}


//after getting video id you can display video in any HTML elements.
if(catvideo != ""){
           $('.cat_video').html('<iframe id="ytplayer" type="text/html" width="170" height="110" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/'+videoid+'" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen allowscriptaccess="always"></iframe>');
}
else{
         $('.cat_video').html('');
}
