Hmm. What to do. If I change the code to handle the new embed stuff, it will break existing pieces.<BR>

Thanks<BR>

<BR>
Hacking the SRC in the Utube embedded code (delete everything after the question mark ) works both in templates and toolkits.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
It is easier than hacking the code but will toolkits be updated ?<BR>

Hi All<BR>
<BR>
Following applies to Xerte 2.12 and pagewizards 07/2010 and may be just related to the particular SRC i am accessing<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
In page wizards in getPageID ( script icon) I Replaced<BR>
<BR>
//vidID = embedObj.object[0].embed[0].src.split('/')[4].split('&')[0];<BR>
<BR>
With<BR>
<BR>
vidID = embedObj.object[0].embed[0].src.split('/')[4].split('?')[0];<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
After this change all works as expected<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Embedded code :<BR>
<BR>
""""<object width="960" height="745"><param name="movie" value="<A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/v/eI388V_xhws?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0&hd=1">http://www.youtube.com/v/eI388V_xhws?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0&hd=1</A>"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="<A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/v/eI388V_xhws?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0&hd=1">http://www.youtube.com/v/eI388V_xhws?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0&hd=1</A>" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="960" height="745"></embed></object> """<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
This seems to be because YouTube have introduced options or I have not selected the embedded code properly - similar but not related to the link in my previous post.<BR>
<BR>
Also not confident that this is just a fix or workaround ?<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Other than modify the scr code itself I do not know how to modify the online toolkits<BR>

Hi All<BR>
I changed my security settings and wikipedia, Youtube feeds, flicker etc all work except an embeded YouTube.<BR>
Tried this in both page wizards and maxos toolkits - to no avial - strage that the YouTube feeds pay perfectly but not an embedded Youtube video.<BR>
<BR>
Is it possible the video id parser in Pagewizards and toolkits need to be updated see notice below from Youtube.<BR>

Upcoming Change to YouTube Video Page URLs<BR>
<BR>
There's an upcoming change to YouTube video page URLs that we wanted developers to know about. While it's not something that will directly affect users of the YouTube APIs, chances are there are some developers in the audience who have code that parses existing YouTube video page URLs, possibly to extract a video's id.<BR>
<BR>

I suspect this is a flash player security issue...<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
When viewing an LO via HDD or USB Flash Player security settings may prevent some pages from working e.g. where external data is being retrieved like YouTube page. Right click in the centre of the LO so that you see the flash player menu and select Global Settings....<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
A new browser window should launch where you can select the Global Security Settings panel see <A HREF="http://grab.by/grabs/8e20f782907a1a6a1ca306c6ee177f68.png">http://grab.by/grabs/8e20f782907a1a6a1ca306c6ee177f68.png</A><BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Select Edit locations > Add location and add the location of your LO e.g. C:\mydocuments\xerte\ or just C:\ In my case my ext hdd is J:\ <A HREF="http://grab.by/grabs/27cfe11937d5db2479a6278dd47628d5.png">http://grab.by/grabs/27cfe11937d5db2479a6278dd47628d5.png</A><BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Let us know if that fixes your problem?<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
If you upload the same LO to a webserver and view from there it should work fine. Although there are some pages that are an exception to this.<BR>

Hi,<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
We've recently starting using Xerte Online Toolkit and I'm working on a presentation. The only glitch is that, when I export the presentation as a zip file, after unzipping it, the Youtube videos don't play. The player loads, but I get a message saying: "Player loading". And then it doesn't.<BR>
<BR>
Any ideas? I searched the archives, but did not find something useful.<BR>
<BR>
Thank you for the help.<BR>
