Failed to execute 'postMessage' on 'DOMWindow': The target origin provided ('<URL>') does not match the recipient window's origin ('<URL>').

I'm showing youtube videos using javascript youtube iframe api. (https://developers.google.com/youtube/iframe_api_reference)

html:

<div id="main_player"></div>

js:

main_player = new YT.Player('main_player', {
    height: '640',
    width: '1024',
    videoId: 'HBp43hgKG5M'
});

But there are some errors like this in chrome console. "Failed to execute 'postMessage' on 'DOMWindow': The target origin provided ('') does not match the recipient window's origin ('')." And sometimes the page is blank. What's the reason of this? how to solve it? I hope someone's willing help, who has experience.

So, this is likely an issue on youtube's side and shouldn't affect playback but it's also nothing that we can do about it. There's more information about it in the last few comments here https://github.com/videojs/videojs-youtube/issues/67#issuecomment-405951335

Thank you for your answer but what can we do about the blank page when iframeapi isn't ready? only have to reload it?

[gkatsev]

I haven't seen any issues with a blank page. Does it happen with the video above? How often does that happen?

[gold2ragon]

Oh, I'm developing now. so I often reload to check updated code. Then sometimes it happens.

Hi, did anyone find a solution for this?

video.js@7.11.4 videojs-youtube@2.6.1

Alguien ya ha podido resolver este error? a la fecha (Septiembre 2021) aun esta sucediendo, es un error intermitente, aveces es capas de reproducir el video, pero en otras ocaciones queda en un loop infinito mostrando el error por consola.

[rodrigo-arias]

El error todavía sucede en video.js@7.14.3 y videojs-youtube@2.6.1, no impide reproducir el video pero se muestra el error en consola.

I've found that this issue is only on chrome, non-chromium browser don't throw these errors
