Description

When embedding the following YouTube video :

<iframe width="450" height="350" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wtHra9tFISY?start=151" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

It is displayed as (on Windows 10 and iPad OS 15) :

But works perfectly fine on Android 12.

Is there any way to make it work on PC and iPad as it works on Android ?

Thanks !

This video is configured on youtube to not be embeddable.

@WhiteNoise : So why is it properly displayed on Android ?

#4

I can’t even get the video to open on chrome in embedded format.

@WhiteNoise : I made two screenshots on mobile (Android 12). You can see that the very same iframe :

Shows perfectly fine :

I understand, but that video doesn’t even open in chrome/firefox on desktop. It’s a youtube issue.

Take this https://www.youtube.com/embed/wtHra9tFISY and put it chrome. It doesn’t open.

Indeed, the video does not open in Chrome.

However, since it opens on Android, there must be somehow a difference in how the request is made between Android and Desktop ? If it is technically possible that the video loads, could this be extended to desktop too ?
