Youtube embeds will not play on some computers

Jul 24, 2014

My youtube embeds will not play on some computers. For the most part, these are the older laptops in the office. Is there any kind of computer/internet update that would fix this problem?

Hi Taylor,

Unfortunately, it's difficult to say.

The first thing I would do is check to make sure that all of the machines accessing the course meet the minimum viewing requirements for Storyline content:

If that doesn't fix the problem, it may help to know a little bit more about the machines, browsers, location and type of content your learners are viewing. For example, are they viewing a course through an LMS, web server, CD output, HTML5, Flash, etc.?

Thanks!

Hi Taylor,

I believe that CD published content actually runs off of Internet Explorer - you might want to try updating this.

However, if you're actually launching from a burned disc, this will be a little different.

If you're running from the CD published output however, make sure that you're running from the .exe file, not the HTML file and make sure that the files are not compressed.

If you still have trouble, you're welcome to share the .story file here.

Thanks!
