Vimeo embed with autoplay and loop is really slow...help!
-
Hi there,
our embeded vimeo videos are really slow.
We embed them with autoplay, loop and hidden bars...As far as i know it normally loads an thumbnail or wallpaper if its not ready yet, but in our case we have a white screen for some seconds before the video starts...
Does someone have similiar issues?
Our embed code:
<div style="padding:56.25% 0 0 0;position:relative;"><iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/868286699?background=1&autoplay=1&loop=1&title=0&byline=0&portrait=0" style="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen class="noclick" id="noclick"></iframe></div><script src="https://player.vimeo.com/api/player.js"></script>thanks for your help!

its better to embed your videos with this:
try this, is it faster?
if you embed many youtube and vimeo videos, they all load an iframe. thats like loading a whole new website for each video.
when using +video → +youtube/vimeo, only the currently visible iframes are being loaded which can make it much faster
Need custom programming for your Lay Theme site?
I regularly add new features to Lay Theme for free, based on user feedback. But if you or your client need something more specific, I’m happy to offer custom paid programming tailored to your project.
Email info@laytheme.com with the subject "Custom paid programming for Lay Theme" and a short description of what you need — I’ll reply with a cost estimate.
Custom features I build often make it into future Lay Theme updates, so your idea might benefit the whole community.
Before you post:
- When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
- Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
- Disable all Plugins
- Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"
This often solves issues you might run into
When you post:
- Post a link to where the problem is
- Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
- If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
