YouTube Widget and SmartShapes

Hi,
I am using a YouTube Widget and I want to use a smartshape to introduce or set context for the video - see pic below. The problem is that the smartshape does not show up when I F11 - view whole project. Somehow it seems to override it. If I take the widget out the smartshape works. I have tried to not have the widget appear until after the smartshape but that doesn't work. Can anyone help me clear this up?

A single button won't work because I need to put a few sentences of text. It looks like the z order is changed from what I have on my timeline. Do Widgets take precedence somehow? Is there a way around this?

YouTube Widget and HD

Questions on YouTube widget
1) The HD button in YouTube does not show up in widget until after it has been played once, then it shows you (even if movie is stopped). Logically, the HD button should show up before the viewer 1st clicks to play. Is there a way to make the HD button always show up in widget?
2) the HD button does not show up if widget is sized smaller than some width (say around 325px). This means the widget has to be pretty large, or the HD will never show (before, after or during playback). Is there a way around this?
3) if you click once on the widget, the youtube plays. If you click twice (by accident?) it takes you to youtube website to play. Is there anyway to disable this double click that takes you out of your web sit to youtube?
Thanks
bob

Robin ~ Glad that worked out — can you provide the URL(s) to your newly embedded HD videos?
By the way, I noticed you've started an iWeb blog with one entry. Before you add more, you may want to consider using a dedicated blogging platform instead — problems with iWeb's blog are a recurring theme on these forums: Lost all blog entries, or all comments, or unable to publish, or unable to open iWeb, etc.
For a success story using a non-iWeb blog hosted on WordPress, see this old thread:
To blog or not to blog
As an alternative to setting up a basic hyperlink to your external blog, you can link to it from iWeb's navigation bar:
Create a blank internal page titled "Blog" (actually you can name the page whatever you want.) Then in that Blog page add an HTML Snippet with the following code:
<script type="text/javascript">
parent.window.location = "http://www.yourblogname.com"; // change this to your own URL
</script>
...Once published, clicking on "Blog" in the navbar will immediately redirect to your external Blog page. (Thanks to Cyclosaurus for the code).

Youtube widget and audio widget crashes gmail

Hi -
I have my site as a business catalyst site - and on some machines, it crashes gmail when I open youtubes or the audio widget I bought from Musegrid.
Has anyone had this happen? And perhaps when I host from GoDaddy or sim, this problem will go away?
Thanks -

Hi
Please share the site url and exact steps you are taking to replicate the issue.
It should not crash any other browser site.

Youtube widget and Sticky Navigation Bar

The pictures below include my sticky navigation bar that Should overlay all other objects in the muse webpage. It does this with all objects, except for the youtube video placed by using the widget object.
How can I resolve this issue? Youtube is the last object in the layers menu.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

YouTube Widget not displaying video in Preview

Dear All,
I've embedded my YouTube share code within the YouTube widget, and the message comes up: "unable to generate thumbnail". When I got to a live preview of the page/site, the YouTube play box comes up, but says: "an error occurred, please try again later." I'm working with the latest update on Muse on an iMac 10.10.3 with Java script turned on and the latest Adobe Flash player installed. I've read all of the bug reports on the YouTube widget, but they were all over six months old and I assumed the bugs should have been fixed with the latest Muse updates. Any suggestions as to why the widget isn't working and how to work around it? Nothing crashes, but it just isn't bringing up the video.
Thanks.A

Dear All,
I'll answer my own question after a chat session with Adobe support. When you paste in your video ID from your YouTube share box, don't enter the https://youtu.be/ characters -- just enter your video ID characters that follow after. After entering the ID correctly, the YouTube preview opened up without problems in my "Preview Site in Browser screen". Such a little thing to waste so much time over, so I'm posting it for everyone in the future to see and learn from! I was used to just copying and pasting the entire url, but not so here! Good Luck to All!

Youtube Widget bugs

Hello,
I am having some issues with the Youtube Widget.
The Fullscreen does not work even though it is selected to do so.
Also, the I noticed the settings do not work when the Reduced Branding is selected as well.
Although it does work when it is not selected.
I did try seeing also if the Fullscreen problem was "Branding" issue and it is not.

Hi,
Okay . Can you please Quit Muse and try to reset the preferences of Muse.
In Mac,
1) Quit Muse.
2) Go to desktop > click on Go > "Go to folder"
3) Type "~/library" without the quotes and press enter.
4) Go to folder named "Preferences"
5) Go to folder named "Adobe Muse"
6) Move folder "Local Store" to desktop.
7) Re-launch Muse and new Local store folder will be created resulting in re-creating preferences.
And In WIndows,
C:\Users\ronair\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Muse CC
Just Rename this folder as well as rename this folder:
C:\Users\ronair\AppData\Roaming\com.adobe.AdobeMuseCC.2014.0
Once you have done this can you create a new site and use the Youtube widget and test it whether its working fine or not.
Thanks,

It's only Safari/iOS7. Chrome iOS7 works fine.
Solution?
Go to YT and grab the code.
Paste it in a HTML Snippet.

Do any one knows how to add those arrows from the right and left side of the screen in the youtube widget which allows you to navigate back and forth between video clips?

Make sure that both the web browser you're using and its Flash plug-in are up to date. Google Chrome has its own Flash plug-in it updates on its own. Firefox, IE and other have separate plug-ins.

Youtube widget produces videos that don't work correctly when played in iWeb

Get a flashing video when embedding a Youtube video in an iWeb window using th Youtube widget.
Video plays OK in Youtube.
Used iMovie to prepare the Quicktime movie and used settings recommended for Youtube uploading.

The YouTube widget stopped working when MobileMe was discontinued 2 years ago. The widget needed the MMe servers in order to work.
To add a youtube video go to YouTube and get the embed code for that video. Back in iWeb use a regular HTML widget with the embed code.

Muse crashes when using youtube widget?

I am aware that this question has been asked before. But the answer provided does not solve the problem. I am using Muse 2014.1 and it seems that the problem with the YouTube widget is still there. It crashes when (1) I try to create a youtube gallery including it in a composite widget, and (2) it crashes also when I use it as a standalone widget. Any thoughts? Similar problem also with the vimeo widget -- Muse cannot create thumbnail.

I've received the initial file and am investigating. Please send the additional files. Please also send the MuseLog.txt file from your Documents folder. It should contain a bit more information about each error you've encountered.
This initial file appears to have a fairly involved menu that's severely corrupted. I'm attempting to surgically remove it from the file but internally many many small objects appear to be involved.
Do you recall anything unusual that may have occured while working with a menu today? The corrupt objects all appear to have been created between 10:30 am and 6:30 pm today your time. If you're seeing this in other files, did those files start as copies of this file or with objects copied and pasted from this file, or are they completely independent?

Wrapping text around YouTube widget

Does anyone know how to get the YouTube widget to appear inline? I tried to follow the steps below, which works fine for photos, but can't get it to work with this widget. If it's not possible, is there a workaround?
Thanks!
To make text wrap around an object:
Starting with an existing block of text on your webpage, place the insertion point in the text where you want the object to appear.
By adding an item at a text insertion point, it becomes an inline object. This means text can wrap around it.
Do one of the following:
To add a photo, movie, or audio file, drag the file to the insertion point in the text while holding down the Command key.

Unfortunately you can't paste a widget into a text box. The only way to get what you want is to create a transparent shape the size of the widget and insert that into the text box. Then move the widget over the transparent shape. It will appear like it's inserted into the text box.

YouTube widget not working in F12 preview

Hi all,
I am having some issues with the YouTube widget. Where previously it has worked in the F12 preview, it now does not. It works after publishing, but this is frustrating because I need to do a lot of fine tuning.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Mike

The best way to test You Tube (and Web Object) interactions are from a web server. I use XAMPP, it is very easy to set up. During testng, I just publish to that webserver's folder directly and check it on the browser.

YouTube Widget on FIOSTV unusable

Maybe there's something I'm missing but Youtube on FIOS TV seems to be unusable by design, at least if you have a slowish PC or in-house network is slowish (e.g. wireless).
I get to the Youtube widget on my FIOS TV, get the lists of videos from YouTube, choose one and select. However, it is unviewable because it stops and starts.. (The feed is too slow for real-time video via my wireless network and laptop I assume and there is no buffer.)
OK. No problem I think, this often happens on PCs too - Just pause the video, wait for the feed to download some more of the video, then play and it will be able to keep up..
Well, nope - As soon as you pause, the widget stops downloading so it never gets a buffer loaded!
OK, Well surely you can just restart the video (under "options") and, since many seconds are already loaded, you have a buffer and it will work right? Nope! The "Restart" option thows away what you have and starts reloading from the beginning again while trying still to play in real time!
OK, Well then exit to list and re-enter. Maybe it will keep the buffer then? - Nope! Reloads from the start forgetting everything it loaded previously...
Well - My conclusion is "YouTube Widget on FIOSTV is unusable"
What did I miss??
(or do I need to use a fast desktop and wire it direct with cat5 cable to the router which would be a real pain!)
Thanks for any help..

I have media manager running on a wireless computer and I am able to see video and audio with out any skips or drop outs. Of course the video plays in a small window and you have to click another button to get it to go full screen. The programming is a kludge. Playing one video after another causes the screen to flicker a few times and drop out a few times.
Verizon should only put this out a beta software. That way if it works for you.... great and if not OH well it is beta... People expect this to work. I have a blue ray player that will play YouTube videos and transition between vids with none of these problems. Verizon needs to down to the local high school and get some real programmers that understand what people really want.
