Youtube player API issue with default video embed (embedly, CORS?)

Hi

thanks Jeff, at least I have a starting point now.

because of this issue though I don’t seem to be able to bind the Video Link (URL) in my template:

Can't bind Video Link from CMS into custom embed code

Hi, I’ve added a Video Link custom field in my collection template but when I try to reference it in custom code the field doesn’t show is this expected? basically I want Content Editors to be able to add the youtube link into the CMS and see the preview, but I don’t actually bind it to an actual video player on the page because of this issue Therefore I just need to pull the video URL out from the field. Am I going to have to use a plain text field for the video URL and lose the preview i…

Instead, I’m going to try and put in a normal video embed onto my page but run JS code in my header to remove the embedly iframe from the DOM and inject a new video player based on the original src, before the iframe has chance to load the src.

(Essentially I still want content editors to be able to see the Video Link preview thumb in the CMS field, which they can’t do if I swapped it out to a plain text URL to fix the mapping)

thanks
J.
