[Bug]:How to play YouTube videos inside custom widgets

[satpalslabs]

I am trying to embed YouTube videos inside custom widgets using iframes and video js library.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Created a custom widget.
2. Embedded a YouTube video using the video JS library.

<div className="h-[200px] w-full">
     <video-js d="player1" className="video-js min-w-full"
         allow="autoplay" preload="auto">
           <source src={item.url} type="video/youtube" />
      </video-js>
 </div>

OR

1. Create a custom widget
2. Embed a YouTube video inside an iframe tag.

<div className="h-[200px] w-full">
    <iframe className="min-w-full h-full" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/E9eKchgS-Gk" title="1:2:2 Knowledge - The How And Why Of Asthma" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>

Error with both methods: YouTube videos are not playing but with the video JS library and other formats videos are working fine.
Expected Output: YouTube video should be automatically playing or should play manually on a button click.

Note: We can't use the default video widget as we also have other custom implementations.

Hi team @Nikhil-Nandagopal @pranavkanade ,

I have been able to reproduce the issue with YouTube videos not playing correctly inside the custom widget in the production environment. Unfortunately, I have not been able to replicate the issue in my local setup.

I am interested in investigating and resolving this bug. Could you please assign this issue to me?

@raushan3737 if it's working on your local setup then the issue is likely with the configurations of the environment where it is hosted and so you won't be able to really debug and solve this issue.
