Right now, there are a lot of old meetings that use the old
iframeembed. This makes it tedious to update the display method over time. This PR migrates those old import schemes to use the new YouTube script added in #1876.It also adds back controls to the player. In my original envisioning of the embed back in 2024, it seemed like just a useful tool to throw in some of these amazing Lumenaut videos. Since they are all under 7 or so minutes (and that's aggressive), I didn't think we needed controls.1 But now that I see it applies to hour-long meetings, we're clearly going to need those if we don't want readers to bounce over to YouTube and away from our docs.
In the future, I think it'd be clearly cool to add a mini player where the video can stay going in the bottom corner while the visitor explores other written pages in the docs.
