The videos added in Dynamic media components via experience fragment are taking too long to render on the page

Hi @chinmayish 

Please check the source of the video, maybe its still loading from AEM.

Hi @chinmayish ,

Are you using Adobe scene7 video player or custom player? 

Hi @chinmayish ,

When you put a Dynamic Media video inside an Experience Fragment, extra wrapper markup and clientlibs get loaded, which slows down rendering.

Make sure the Dynamic Media clientlibs are included only once (duplicate loads inside XF can cause delay).

Check that the lazy loading config is not overridden in the XF – sometimes the checkbox doesn’t pass through.

Use the same embed method (smart embed / video profile) for XF as for the standalone component.

If possible, place the video component directly on the page instead of nesting in an XF for performance-critical use cases.

The slowdown comes from extra XF wrapping. Keep clientlibs clean, check lazy load settings, and prefer direct placement if performance matters.

Hi @chinmayish ,

You might wana consider new DM Video player, it promises better performance than the previous S7 video player.

Also, consider @hrishikeshkagne 's comment, extra wrappers and JS always derails performance.

Thanks!
