Page with many YouTube embeds stuck and crash.
-
The AI assistant said ”The YouTube embeds inside a Details block will only load when the block is opened/expanded. ”
But the YouTube embeds actually loads at start, leads the page stuck and crash, also having bad performance.
Can you fix to make it be lazy-load?

Hello @whvupxbrfiqkjetladncsygmo!
The YouTube Block doesn’t provide controls to prevent preloading of data from YouTube. Thus, having many videos on a single page can slow the loading of the page since it requires fetching data for each of the videos.
To have control over video data preloading you’d need to use plugins which can be done on Business Plan.
Keep in mind that Video Block offers the control over the preloading so you could consider using it as an alternative to host your videos which can be done on Premium plan.
I hope that’s helpful and clarifies things for you. Let me know if you have more questions. Thanks!
