Hello Paul,

I believe there may be an issue with the Video Object which has only recently appeared.  Please see this thread:

https://helpcenter.websitex5.com/post/133811

I expect that Incomedia will deal with this quickly.

Kind regards,

Paul

Okay thank you. The site is https:// if that makes any difference. I reloaded the entire website and the videos from Youtube and vimeo that used to work before the upgrade still do not work now.

Paul

Yes, I believe the issue affects secure sites using SSL, just as you describe.

I made some tests and also noticed the same behaviour over https://

The Video Object works fine on standard sites over http://

I think it may have something to do with the fact that WebSite X5 enforces an http prefix in the URL field of the Video Object: even if the user specifically enters an https prefix, nevertheless the software replaces this with http, leading to a mixed content scenario which the browser appears to block as a result.  I tried using a protocol relative prefix also, but this too was removed and replaced with http.

We will ask Incomedia to look into this.  Please continue to monitor this thread for their response.

Many thanks,

Paul

Hi James,

Thank you.

I could not get youtube to work but could get Vimeo to imbed. I will use that until Incomedia sort it out.

Thanks again,

Paul

Hi Paul.

Thankyou for reporting.

The issue will be passed and verified by the developers.

You will be notified as soon as a solution is found.

Thanks for your patience

As I mentioned, I am unable to get youtube to respond using <iframe> only vimeo.

My vimeo annual subscrition expires soon and I will want to use youtube exclusively. Any suggestions on <iframe> and youtube until the video object and https:// is solved?

Paul

Try this:

<iframe width="480" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/sJZeIvOpKBE?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Like this. See attached image.

James,

Thank you I can get your imbed code to work. When I insert mine https://youtu.be/-aPC7ghO2co it does not. I must be missing somthing?

I was missing something. My bad ;-)

Instead of using the embed link from Youtube, I was copying my share link into your iframe code. Too much coffee.

Still waiting to hear back  from icomedia.

I am unable to insert a video into my https page from youtube using the web address.  This is not working. In meantime where do I find the ifo to insert in iframe?
