Hello!
I recently made a story map using both regular and 360 videos from my youtube channel. While editing it everything was working as intended; all videos were visible and interactive. After publishing however none of the videos are loading. I'm not getting a specific error, the video players are just showing up black. This goes for both 360 videos and regular ones. Even stranger, if I go back into edit mode I can't get the video player to recognize any youtube links, both if I try to replace the links in the players currently in the tour, and if I try to add in a new player. This goes for both re-adding links to videos that were in the original tour, and ones that were not that I tried just to experiment. When I try to add in the youtube link I get an error saying its not a recognized URL.
Has anyone else had this issue and does anyone know what may solve it?
Other factors that may be contributing:
I'm using Chrome. This wasn't an issue when setting up the storymap, but maybe it has issues displaying it?
The videos I have linked are unlisted on youtube. Again, no problem during the set up, but maybe the public storymap doesn't want to show unlisted videos?
Here is a link to the storymap.
Thank you!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Thanks @JayantaPoddar I checked on some other machines and its working fine. Turns out a Chrome extension was blocking the vids on my main comp haha. For anyone with a similar problem in the future make sure you double check your extensions!
Thank you!
I can see the embedded YouTube videos in your storymap. All of them are playing just fine.
Working on Google Chrome.
Could you check the storymap from a different machine/ Network?
