YouTube Embed (by embedplus) Stops BG Video From Looping

Since YouTube Embed Plus have 100,000+ installations, I figured that you might want to be aware of this.

I saw this early on but it was not reproducible so I just posted that I was seeing it. Yesterday I saw it several times and was able to turn it off and on by activating and deactivating this plugin.

Although it is still not 100% reproducible since I’ve been able to make it happen and not happen on several sites it is worth reporting. Action traces appear in the Chrome Dev Console that don’t show up when the plugin is deactivated. One message that is particularly sporadic but shows up from time to time is “Failed to execute ‘postMessage’ on ‘DOMWindow’: The target origin provided… does not match the recipient window’s origin …”

Bottom line. There is enough going on here to raise it as an issue for you to bookmark. I have just stopped using the plugin for now.

Thanks.
