How can I do that? I found this and this, saying that raw HTML should be supported. However, I tried this, which does not work:

.. raw:: html

    <div style="position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; height: auto;">
        <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/zIFMyBkYwqg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen style="position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%;"></iframe>
    </div>

This is a related question for readme markdown (md) files. For markdown, raw HTML or video support seems not supported, so they embed just an image with a link to the video. If a video is not possible, then I would like to do the same, but also then, the question is how.

[this](https://stackoverflow.com/a/16079387/7123660) seems to be your backup solution. – Benjamin Loison Sep 02 '22 at 10:23
  • @BenjaminLoison This is the answer for markdown, but I'm asking about restructuredtext here. Although I guess it's simple to translate. But it would be helpful for others to have this as an answer here. – Albert Sep 02 '22 at 10:26
  • Oh sorry I read too quickly your last sentences and I thought that a markdown backup solution was fine in your case. – Benjamin Loison Sep 02 '22 at 10:28

Here is in reStructuredText the code for embedding an image with a link to the YouTube video.

.. image:: https://img.youtube.com/vi/YOUTUBE_VIDEO_ID_HERE/maxresdefault.jpg
    :alt: IMAGE ALT TEXT HERE
    :target: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOUTUBE_VIDEO_ID_HERE
