Blocking YouTube embeds causes Aw, Snap! crashes in Chrome

  • Hi,

    We’re having issues with the block feature for YouTube embeds. When the placeholder setting is active, Chrome users are experiencing random “Aw, Snap!” page crashes. Unfortunately information regarding this Chrome bug seems very scarce. It’s apparent this is a bug in Chrome, not your plugin. Nevertheless this specific feature of your plugin is triggering the bug.

    I’m using Gutenberg (the latest version, via the official plugin) embeds. We’ve seen this behavior on Windows, Linux and MacOS on the latest version of Chrome (Version 86.0.4240.111 (Official Build) (x86_64) on MacOS).

    I’m also seeing this warning in the console

    Resource interpreted as Document but transferred with MIME type video/mp4: "https://<REDACTED>/wp-content/plugins/complianz-gdpr/assets/video/youtube-placeholder.mp4?cmplz=1".

    This is not the case in Firefox or Safari.

    I can provide you with a test URL if you’d like, but privately, not here.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.
