Well, once again, Storyline has disappointed. This should not be difficult. I use the steps and the embed code RIGHT FROM YOUTUBE and Storyline says it can't use that code. I'm now starting to regret buying this product. *Sigh*
I'm sorry to hear about the issue you've run into. YouTube videos that were added to Articulate content via Insert > Video > Video from Website aren't currently working.
You'll see this message where your videos should be:
YouTube is upgrading to a newer version, which is not supported by this device or app. To learn more and see where you can watch YouTube, visit www.youtube.com/devicesupport
Google changed support for the YouTube API, which prevents videos added in this manner from playing in Articulate content. We've asked Google to reconsider their decision (Google Data Issue 7146).
In the meantime, we recommend adding YouTube videos as web objects instead. As an added benefit, YouTube web objects are supported in Flash, HTML5, and Articulate Mobile Player output.
Hope that helps and please let us know if you need anything else!
