Troubleshooting Cascade Video Embed

July 16, 2020 By Thuy H Nguyen

Troubleshooting Cascade Video Embed

During the new STAs training for Cascade, we’ve identified an issue with the JW player not being able to play the embed YouTube video. I’ve identified a workaround by embedding and resizing the YouTube video with an iframe tag. I’ve also updated the Cascade instructions.

A very very special note: I had to give Schumann’s Ghost Variations a shout-out in these instructions LOL. It’s been stuck in my head for the past week. You can listen to it here. And read the very moving story behind this piece in the description section as well if you’d like!

I’ve asked Tim, our director, about this issue to see if he has a better solution regarding this. He said this the workaround I’ve identified is what he would recommend, and he said that in the future they will probably replace it with a JavaScript video library.
