ID cs6 Embed Youtube

Still having issues with embedding Youtube html into digital publishing documents. Running version 8.0.1. The process, outlined in many different resources, worked flawlessly until three days ago. I've tried the same process on 10 different computers running the same version of InDesign with the same result, nada. What is going on?
Is there a way that I can look "under the hood" so that I can compare the code that worked with the code that isn't working?
Did Youtube change it's embed code and Adobe hasn't caught up? This is the code I'm trying to embed.
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/iLcNPFXWXd0?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
To the person reading this: Can you open an InDesign document for digital publication, go grab the iframe embed code from a Youtube video and see you can embed the html successfully? In Adobe veiwer I see nothing but a blank white document.
Thanks
Mark

Embed a YouTube video using the following steps:
Choose your video from YouTube.
Choose Share / Embed and find the SRC in the Embed Code (//www.youtube.com/embed/Bt9zSfinwFA)
Make note of the sizes that YouTube offers for Embedding. You will want to size your container similarly.
Copy that and open your InDesign document.
Place a container on the page.
Adjust the size of the container to match the size shown on YouTube or at least keep it in the same aspect ratio.
With the container selected, choose FOLIO OVERLAYS / WEB CONTENT.
Paste in the URL you copied on step 2.
Make sure to add 'http:' at the beginning of the pasted code.
Choose autoplay so that the video thumbnail and play icon from YouTube will show on load.
Choose transparent background, for no real reason I guess.
Choose allow interaction so the user can click the play icon.
Choose scale content to fit. This is why using the proper aspect ratio is important.
Hope this helps to clarify.

Is it possible to embed Youtube videos in to InDesign?

Hello everyone,
im working with a interactive pdf and i need to put in a couple of video's.
Is it possible to embed Youtube video's into InDesign?
I know that this question has been asked before, but a answer on it i couldn't find.
Sorry for my bad english , but after a couple of hours of looking on the internet and experimenting it still doesn't work.
Thanks,

Here's an interactive PDF with a Flash player I built awhile back embedded
http://www.zenodesign.com/forum/zenoyoutube.pdf
This won't work inside of a browser, but if you download the pdf and open it in Reader 9 it should work. You'll have to click the Flash icon and Allow dialogs first then enter a YouTube URL in the field in the lower right corner and click play. Most YouTube URLs from your browser address field should work, i.e. this format:

How do I embed YouTube or Vimeo video in an apple mail message

Is there an easy way to embed YouTube or Vimeo video in an apple mail message?
I've tried using command+i (same with share feature) on a YouTube page ... looks great except I get missing plugin error on video.
I'm up to date on Flash plugin, running Safari 6, OS X 10.8. No old Flash files in the internet library.
Any help is appreciated!

There's an HTML validator built in to the editor and it will, by default, throw out all but the simplest HTML tags.
The Apple document, Mac OS X Server, Wiki Server Administration V 10.6 explains all the gruesome details. But here's the solution that I use:
Change to the Wiki Server's directory by using
cd /Library/Application\ Support/Apple/WikiServer
If it doesn't exist, create a file called whitelist.plist:
sudo touch whitelist.plist
The file will be owned by root and all members of the _teamserver group. The latter is required for the Wiki service to have access.
Then edit the file with any appropriate editor -- I like vi:
sudo vi whitelist.plist
The file needs to have very specific formatting. This one should get your YouTube embedded HTML working:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>protocols</key>
<array>
<string>scp</string>
</array>
<key>styles</key>
<array>
<string>font-size</string>
</array>
<key>tags</key>
<dict>
<key>object</key>
<array>
<string>width</string>
<string>height</string>
</array>
<key>param</key>
<array>
<string>name</string>
<string>value</string>
</array>
<key>embed</key>
<array>
<string>src</string>
<string>type</string>
<string>width</string>
<string>height</string>
</array>
<key>script</key>
<array>
<string></string>
</array>
<key>hr</key>
<array>
<string></string>
</array>
</dict>
</dict>
</plist>
After making changes or additions, save and close the whitelist.plist file then restart the Web service using the Server Admin application.
If you aren't at all familiar with vi, then you may want to instead create a text file on your desktop, put the content into it, then move it to the right location and change its ownership and permissions.
Hope this helps.

Embed Youtube into PowerPoint

Hey everyone- I have a presentation coming up and I want to embed youtube into powerpoint. I cannot figure this out for the life of me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

youtube delivers in flash video format, .flv, which is not supported by ppt.
in the Help files of ppt, I do read swf is supported, but unfortunately, the swf I've created with VisualHub does NOT work in my version of PPT..
for Windows Systems, you get some flash-player-add-ons for PPT (first google hit..........)
so, I guess, you have to ask the experts at the PPT forum at microsoft.com ..
imho, PPT only supports .avi containers with Cinepac codec..
be nice to copyrights

Embed Youtube video indesign CC/CS6

I am trying to embed a youtube video in indesign to be published using DPS into an app on the ipad...
I was previously able to do this in indesign CS6 then upgraded to CC and now it no longer displays correctly. I have since gone back and reinstalled CS6 but now that doesn't work either...
I have tried on both CC and CS6 to embed the code using the "insert html" function and also right clicking the video to get that copy embed code and paste directly...neither works :/

I had the same problem after a update. Seems the code for YouTube might have changed or something within InDesign changed.
Here is the code you need to hopefully make it work (works for me everytime):
<iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/(Insertvideoinforhere)" frameborder="0" ></iframe>
You will need to get the string of numbers & letters's that youtube gives in the share code like: Z452rs9qHuc. I put where you need to put it in bold. (This is what YouTube give now that does not work<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/Z452rs9qHuc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> (you need to take the info like what I highlighted in bold) & put in the code that I provided.
When you do the embbed, you might need to go back over the video, & bring up the embbed HTML box again & hit enter to make it work once you have put everything in if a blank box comes up. That is what I have had to do for the past few months.
I just tested using both the code I gave & what YouTube give now & only my code would work.
Hope that helps.

Re: Embed Youtube video indesign CC/CS6

Is this also possible if it's destined for epub? I can't seem to get it to work. I've tried everything and searched multiple threads on the topic. Cannot find a single way to embed a youtube video that makes its way into iBooks.

Sorry Bill Bridgeforth,
iBooks had broken off the support for the embedded html items let it be maps, videos.
So whatever video you are placing is going there with the exported file but the reader(iBooks & Adobe Digital Editions) are not able to support it.
If you want to check you can verify it on Readium, an extension of chrome for epubs. or you can see on sigil.
As of now there's no way you can see them in ibooks

Embed Youtube video indesign CC/CS6 PDF

I am having the same problem. The video shows during the preview state within InDesign, but when exporting to pdf I get to the page on the pdf an the box shows up with "The Adobe Flash..." with four separate boxes and when I scroll over that does not results in being able to play the file. CAN SOMEONE HELP!!!! I have a deadline on Monday and could really sue some help.

Thanks Bob,
Exporting to pdf. We circulate to a listserv via pdf to farmers and find that we have to use this format. The pdf is posted on a webpage so we know we users have internet access during reading and thus could stream the video. I'm unfamiliar on how to make a DPS folio, if it ends up being easy to use by the end user we could go that route, but I don't know how to do that,

Dreamweaver CS6: Embedding Youtube Video causes DW to stop responding

HI,
I'm trying to build a simple site that displays an embedded youtube video on the main page. The video is placed in a div tag that is placed in a specific spot on the page background to make it appear as if it's playing on an old PC that's part of the image. I paste the code into the div tag in the code view and it appears as a grey box in design view. Everything seems fine up to there, however when I click live view DW CS6 stops responding and the design view window goes white. I've tried pasting the video embed code into my other page, and into a blank html document to see if it was a problem with the rest of the code but the same thing happens on any of the pages. If I save the page and preview in Chrome or Firefox the page displays the windows loading cursor for a few minutes and then returns a youtube error 6 (ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND).
I spent a few hours researching and found nothing via Google searches, Adobe help or Lynda.com tutorials. I'm new to web design and CSS and got as far as I did through Lynda.com lessons. Which is to say I have an index page and a seperate game guide page that links back and forth displaying images and text exactly as I'd like. Everything else works well enough only the video embedding is giving me trouble which is frustrating because according to everything I've read it's supposed to be one of the simplest processes.
I'm really at a loss as to how to fix this issue and would appreciate any help the Adobe community can give me.
Thanks in advance.

Good to know,
I fixed the problem but I'm not exactly sure why this worked. I went to a different site that uses Youtube hosted videos and tried their embed code which appeared the same to my untrained eye. But to my surprise this other video worked perfectly, so I just put the url for my video in and it worked. I'm not sure why, as far as I can tell both embed codes are the same. Both use <iframe> tags. But it works now, suffice to say I've gained some respect for the people who do this stuff day to day.

Is it possible to "embed" YouTube and other web videos in emai?

Many videos on the web have "embed" capability. Can these be embedded in an email?
I found a passing reference in Mail help about "HTML," but that's Greek to me, and I found nothing about embedding in emails. (I know we can attach movie files that can play in emails, but that's not what I'm asking about.)
Thanks.

How to: Embed YouTube in Ibook/Location of File, Open in Dashboard Widget Code?

Hi,
I am new to the whole Mac experience and loving it after 25 years locked into the MSGATES paradigm. I have been playing around with Ibook and have made a book. I would like to embed a You Tube file and it seems it is not as simple as slecting an HTML widget and then dropping in the Youtube embed code. Or is it?
Instructions are to create a widget and then drag the widget code into the HTML widget in iBooks. I was able to make it as far as to learn I can make my YouTube video a custom dashboard widget using the "File," "Open in Dashboard" method in Safari.
Once I did this I was able to select the portion of the YouTUBE page and click to make the YouTube widget. Presto, easy as pie. But where is the .wdgt file (and/or other related files to this custom dashboard widget) stored? I was able to find the widget directory in my root but only the preinstalled widgets were there--not the the widget I was able to make with the "File," "Open in Dashboard" method.
Is this the most straightforward way to embed a You Tube file, or is there another way?
It seems this should/can be as easy as just dropping the embed code into the HTML widget in iBooks. perhaps a consideration for the next version of iBooks...
Lov'in the Apple experience

We use a container thats ratio matches the video and insert following format into the folio overlay controls for Web Content: https://www.youtube.com/embed/ jyOFS5lAG68 *PLEASE NOTE: there is a space between the embed/ the video ID. Remove it to see how the video looks when you paste the link.
We found this works on both iOS and Android.

Is it possible to Embed Youtube Widescreen windows full options on Flash CS5 AS2 Website?

Good Day
Does anyone know How to Embed a Youtube widescreen Video window on a Flash Website, i'm using Flash CS5 and ActionScript 2???!!
I've seen several video tutorials on youtube and other websites about this, but they only work with a window of 480px for 385px (4:3),
which doesn't allow the fullscreen option on the lower bar of the video, because the player still had a silver bar not a black one !!!!
This is the one i've been using!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfU5Hj3uKZ4
I would like to use a widescreen window (16:9; 16:10), like the ones youtube curently uses, 360p; 480p;720p, like in this case:

I would very much appreciate any help you can give me!!!
Thank you

There are two options here that I can think of..
1. Preinstall AIR on their machines, and use AIR files. That will work IF AIR is already installed. Flash projectors have no ability to control the file system in this way, but AIR does.
2. Use a Director projector. There are Director Xtras that can control the file system, and you can embed a SWF in Director. So you wouldn't have to recreate the SWF content, you'd only need to have Director and learn some basics about using SWF and making projectors.
That's all I can think of.

Embed YouTube into Fluid Grid Layout

I'm new to using the new DW Fluid Grid and I've got a layout with two div's side by side. On the Desktop Grid, I'll have one div take over 7 columns and the other 5. In that div, I want to embed a YouTube video but I'm not sure what the embed settings should be so the video can expand and contract like images do. How do I set that up?
This is what I'm using for my embed code:
<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/XXXXXXX" height: 100%; width="100%" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Do I need to add a width and height? Or like images, should I use no heights or widths at all? Idea is to have it fit the entire div.

Check out this article:
http://webdesignerwall.com/tutorials/css-elastic-videos
Basically... get rid of the height and width attritutes in the iframe, and wrap the video in a new div!
Hope this help,
Julia
