sorry to reopen that issue, but i just ran into it.
If the Video-Iframe already exists and then gets "inserted" to the API
the onError still doesnt fire.
An example Code could look like this
<iframe id="youtube_vid" src="some youtube video with wrong parameters"></iframe>
<script>
var player = document.getElementById("youtube_vid");
new YT.Player(player, {
events: {
'onStateChange': function(){console.log(arguments)},
'onError': function(){console.log(arguments)}
}
});
</script>
Is this "working as intended" because the Player is not build with the API itself?
I am trying to track Errors for existing Pages, the only other way would be to take any found iframe, delete it and replace it with a API-build version of it.
Cheers,
Tim

So unfortunately there's no way for us to know that a video isn't

video played.
I just want to make sure I'm not missing any nuances in what you're
reporting, though. You do actually see the onError event fire when
playback is attempted for the unembeddable video, correct? It's just
that when the video is still cued, there's no onError fired?
