URL Video Insert Fail

Try to insert the video via a webobject, as described here.

Thanks for your response, Michael.

Look, it is not working for me at all.

If i put the the complete URL, Storyline prints out the whole Youtube page.

If I only use the 11-character alphanumeric string, it looks like this when published:

Anyways, it SHOULD work as shown in the very help link Storyline gives when you're about to embed a video like this.

Don't know what's wrong. Not a clue.

When I use : https://www.youtube.com/embed/Brg3RyZ0_To in a webobject and publish, I see the video as expected.

I get the same problem as Javier describes when using Storyline 2 but it works in Storyline 360.

Inserting it as a Web Object in storyline 2 works.

Oh, what a drag. The slide Is being published blank. I mean, in the preview, I see the whole Youtube page, but when I publish to SCORM (and upload in SCORM Cloud), the slide goes completely blank.

Make sure the URL starts with https:// (not just http://)

Yess. It does have that final "s". Check at the screen capture before. =(

I mean, I can work around it, anyway. I can just download the clip and then insert it as a video. But it would have been nice that it just worked.

Thanks, Russel and thanks so much to you , Michael.

Hi Javier, 

If you'd like some more help with this, send us a copy of the slide with the embedded YouTube video. We would be happy to have a closer look! 

Thanks a lot, Alyssa. I am OK, though. I worked around it and I really don't think I will ever have to particularly use that function in our field. I have to train some co-workers and I wanted to have that covered in case someone asked, but is actually not that necessary now that I think about it.

You guys are great, thank you so much.

Sounds great, Javier! Good luck with the rest of your project. If you run into any snags along the way, you know where to find us. ☺️
