If we embed YouTube live feed directly on our website, would it increase our server load and therefore increase the chance to have a site crash? I want to say no because the video is actually pulling from YouTube server? Whereas the website is only providing a frame-like window in the browser? It will be nice if someone could confirm this. Thanks.
sometimes yes
NO
There is no extra server load as both the player and the video content are retrieved on the client directly from the YouTube servers.
