Embedded Videos Lag

it isn’t lagging.

First the server fetches the HTML, it then renders it, it then runs all the scripts (either while loading, or after loading) in this case, YouTube (ie: flash) is being loaded after. So there is not way to change this.

Its normal.

For me the YT videos are loading about 2 seconds after the page has loaded, which is good!

thanks for the reply. Sorry i wasnt clear, i didnt mean the static picture that is given to you when you havent pressed on the video, i meant the video picture while it was playing. Also i think lagging was lack of a better word of describing whats happening. then again im not sure if its my computer.

but for me whats happening while playing is at certain points the picture would freeze, the sound goes on with no problem and then the picture starts again in time with the sound but obviously skipping a second. its annoying. doesnt seem to happen for firefox tho.

This is not a wordpress problem then, try the YouTube forums.

thanks. im not completely sure its a youtube problem. the videos work fine when you go straight to the source. i tried their forums, not much help. the problem also extends to videos ive embedded from other sites as well. i have a feeling its my site and its settings. size of embedding video, something like that…
