Hello,

 Error code 5 indicates that the video can't be played in the HTML5 <video> element:

  https://developers.google.com/youtube/iframe_api_reference#onError

 There is no guarantee that this is a fatal error; it just means that HTML5 <video> playback isn't possible. You're probably seeing the player fall back to Flash playback, which is the default behavior.

Cheers,

Recently I reported a bug that the event "onError" isn't triggered when it should be triggered. This is repo codes: http://jsfiddle.net/K65Vz. This bug hasn't been fixed now.

And now I report another bug that the event "onError" is triggered when it shouldn't be triggered. If you use iframe API HTML5 player to embed this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-zZkbcF4fA), you will find that the event "onError" is triggered before this video starts to play. But there is no error at all. This video can be successfully played. So the event "onError" shouldn't be triggered at all.
