oEmbed is not well-cooked yet IMHO. It may get better with the future releases I hope.

I'm working on a web application that allows users to embed videos from a number of sites, including some more obscure ones. Handling this can be as simple as using regular expressions, or sometimes it involves parsing the page's HTML. Even with the oEmbed API some postprocessing may be needed. For example some embed HTML as it's provided contains links and what not which aren't necessarily desirable. Good to know.
