Since tonight, Smart Youtube behaves in a strange way: when embedding a YouTube video with iFrame option enabled, it will start to play automatically as soon as the page is loaded, regardless of what you set in "autoplay" option. This can be really an issue in a blog like mine, where there is one clip per day embedded and they start playing all together. The only way to prevent embedded clip autostart seems to disable iFrame embedding option. I thought it could be an issue of my blog only, but I noticed that also on this site clips starts automatically. Any idea? Thanks in advance Franz
Many many thanks Vladimir for fixing this so quickly! You have made me and my customer very happy today — I give you 5 stars for customer support. I also just sent you $5 via PayPal. Excellent plugin, keep up the great work! In gratitude, Bodhi
