 There is an open issue marked as "wontfix" by Google with youtube embed:
 https://code.google.com/p/google-cast-sdk/issues/detail?id=309

 When you load it in Chrome it tries to find Chromecast extension. If you
 don't have it active, it will trigger a js error that breaks all js codes
 after it.

 Some people say that the fix in our side would be loading Youtube JS as
 the last script in row. But I think that the best answer that I found was
 to change the url (http://stackoverflow.com/a/32657793/3851035) when it's
 Chrome.

 I could not find where is it in the core to test these. If anyone can
 point me the right direction I can work in a diff.
