Adding website video to a marker

Aug 16, 2019

Working with a marker, I selected "Video from website into the marker label" option from the Media icon on the Format tab.  Right clicked on the video, selected "Copy embed code, and pasted the embed code into the Insert Video from Website window.  It gave me a gray box (attachment) in the marker caption, but that gray box doesn't produce anything when I click on it.

Noticed that all of the tutorials for adding a video to a marker address "Video from file" option in the Media icon on the Format tab.  Couldn't find any tutorial, and Google search turned up nothing addressing my request above.  Any help will be valuable.

Hey Bob,

Thank you for reaching out and for sharing a screenshot of what you are seeing! 

When embedding videos from a website, these videos can't be previewed in Storyline. The best way to review embedded videos is to publish your course. For example, if you publish your course for Web Distribution you can open your course in a web browser and preview the embedded videos. 

Please let me know if you have any additional questions about this!
