Lazy load for video embeds (YouTube etc.)

I hope that lazy load will be also implemented for YouTube embeds in 4.4.

This topic is a live illustration why this is important.

It would be awesome to load just thumbnail instead of player and to load player only when thumbnail clicked. This significantly improves performance on pages with embedded videos.

I commissioned a plugin a few years ago which is available from the author on the marketplace and still works.

AFAIK, lazy loading YT is not part of the 4.4 page load improvements.

I know about this plugin, but i think this must be available in vanilla IPS.

Agreed but it's not and it's not going to be for a bit by the looks of it.

We've added this 🙂 

Huzzah. Plugin officially Sherlock'd.

Hello Rikki, how to make lazy load for YouTube videos work on Pages when we do not use the CkEditor, but the YouTube type field?
