Yes, YouTube says:

If you use the Embed-able Player on your website, you may not modify, build upon, or block     
any portion or functionality of the Embed-able Player, including but not limited to links    
back to the YouTube website.

So, don't try to use CSS tricks especially when you are an Adsense publisher.

I have managed to hide the title by providing a div (by applying css position:absolute) above iframe.

I have removed the YouTube logo by providing modestbranding=1.

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<div style="background-color:black;height:30px;width:420px;position:absolute">
</div>
<div>
<iframe id="div1" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315"
        src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/8pjJ-Czqpps?modestbranding=1&rel=0&fs=0"
        width="420">
</iframe>
</div>
</body>
</html>

Thanks..

youryoutubelink/.../?rel=0&amp;fs=0&amp;showinfo=0"

This removes Logo and Title at the same time. Modestbranding doesn't work at the same time as showinfo, it's either one or the other, hence the workaround.

Here is the best answer for your question.

<iframe width=”213″ height=”120″ src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/nhP1d-NjFHQ?rel=0″ frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>

The highlighted section is what we will be adding to. All it takes is adding &showinfo=0 to the ened of the YouTube URL before the closing bracket. Note that “rel=0″ refers to showing related videos once your video has ended, so if it’s not there simply put your code snippet after a ‘?’ like you see preceding ‘rel=0′ Once you set showinfo to equal zero, you should get a nice, clean YouTube video right on your website. You’re embed code will then look like this:

<iframe width=”213″ height=”120″ src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/nhP1d-NjFHQ?rel=0&showinfo=0″ frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>

I believe you can't get rid of both as it's against the Terms of Service anyways.

This does not remove the logo.

You can add ?modestbranding=1 to your url. That will remove the logo.

Yes, but they're mutually exclusive. You can't do both at the same time.
