Embed into a Blogger post a video that already exists in my Google Drive (via Google Photos). There used to be an "Embed" option in Google Drive, but I no longer see it.

Greetings Ben,

There are a couple of different methods you may use to embed a Google Drive Video into a Blogger Blog.

You may use Back Up & Sync or Google File Stream to sync the video with the local drive.
By doing this you will be able to upload the video from the Back Up & Sync or File Stream Folder located on the Windows device desktop. 

If your preference is to grab an embed code please follow the below steps:
  1. Open Google Drive
  2. Find the Video file
  3. Set Share Setting to Public on Web
  4. Click to Open in iFrame
  5. Click the "More Actions" icon (3 vertical Dots) upper right corner
  6. Select "Open in New Window"
  7. Click "More Actions" and Select Embed Code
  8. Copy Embed Code and paste into Blogger HTML Post Composer


Do share if you have further questions

Best,
Ms. Drasby

Greetings Lodo Grdzak Welcome to Google Blogger Help Community ðŸ˜€
 
Is  your issue specifically with embedding YouTube videos?
If it is could you start a different thread for the issue is different than the original question being answsered.
I don't want to confuse users trying to learn about embedding videos directly from Google Drive.

I've been using the embed code method, but now with the changes to Google Photos and Drive, I can't figure out how to make this work anymore.  Any suggestions?

My previously working embed links seem to be broken now. I get this error after I press the play button:

"Whoops!
There was a problem playing this video.
Download"

However the links work fine if I'm not signed in to any google accounts. My videos are all set to "Public on the Web".

Cindia's video link above plays fine for me signed into Google or not.
