[Xerte] Re: YouTube template

[Ron Mitchell]

Thanks this cropped up during a training event recently and I hadn't realised there was another update to the youtube.rlm to accommodate the default iframe code now.

For those who use the TechDis sandpit the site now has the updated .rlm

Also worth mentioning (for those new to Xerte etc) that this doesn't mean that Xerte/Flash now supports iframes and/or iframe embed code from other sites! It just means that Julian has quickly added some code so that both the new and old embed code from YouTube works for old and new Xerte LO's. 

Therefore also worth mentioning and repeating how great that support from the Nottingham is!

Cheers
Ron

The Youtube.rlm that Julian/Pat attached to the Xerte list supported the new iframe embed code as that's what I'm using. Perhaps it hasn't made it in to the full build yet though.

I clicked on reply to the message below and hadn't noticed it went direct rather than to the list so for the benefit of the list...


Try ticking the box to 'use old embed code'

I'm not 100% sure but I think the previous change of youtube.rlm file was to accommodate a previous change that YouTube made to their code and not the current change where by default the embed code is an iframe which doesn't work. Copying the old embed code works fine.

Hi,
I've downloaded and installed the new youtube.rml file but the video won't load. Anyone found a solution?
Cheers, Franck
