How to embed a Youtube video in RISE
I'm also struggling with video embedding in Rise. The video is on our server, not on Youtube, for example.
https://files.odl.org/_vhb_classic/Medienethikverbesserung2022/Alte Videos/10ME1FaceJournalism.mp4
When I enter this code into Multimedia/Embed, I get a message telling me to enter a proper URL. Which one would that be??
We then tried it via the iFrame. This way the video is displayed, but now all videos start automatically, which we don't want.
Is there a solution to this?
Hi Marion,
The embed block might be rejecting your video because of the space in your URL. Can you use %20 in lieu of the space and try entering your URL again? So it should be like this:
https://files.odl.org/_vhb_classic/Medienethikverbesserung2022/Alte%20Videos/10ME1FaceJournalism.mp4
I did try this link, but I'm getting an error. I'm guessing the video is not available anymore. In any case, keep this in mind of using %20 for spaces in the URL.
If you are still having issues with your URL in the Embed block, you can reach out to us here, and we'll jump on your case right away.
