Ok for iframes. I guess even <object> in a carousel is not optimal with the slide effect. I didn't mean to host the videos, but maybe you can display the image of the video while sliding (Youtube API allows that I think) and then on some user action (hover, click) you show the real Youtube embedded elements.
Other than user action, you can use the carousel events, so that you only display flash when not sliding.
