Video Embed Block Demo

!Note: this piece of documentation is auto-generated from blocks/VideoEmbedBlock/README.md.

Embeds an external video from YouTube or Vimeo with a cover image, caption and options to autoplay, mute and loop.

Features

• Supports both YouTube and Vimeo vidoes.

• Supports caption defaulting to external video's title and optional custom title override.

• Supports autoplay, mute and loop.

• Reserves space for image to prevent page reflow.

• Conditionally loads video on click or when autoplay is set.

• Has a responsive video cover image that lazy loads image for better performance.

• Requires user to give consent due to third party tracking (see #49: consent manager). Alternatively use Video Block with video uploaded in DatoCMS, served without tracking.
