Linked flickr video does not work in cascade story map!

[CalvinKwon1]

I am using Cascade Story Map for the first time (its awesome)! Just using images/videos in my flickr account at the moment. For some reason, videos uploaded on Flickr wont play in the Story Map. It just shows up as a thumbnail.

Just to confirm, will videos linked form YouTube play in your story map? Or maybe another video source (like Vimeo or Esri's E380 videos)? It would be interesting to see if Flickr is the issue here or not.

Hi -- Sorry, we don't support Flickr videos at this time. If you want to use a video please upload it to Vimeo or YouTube.

Owen,

Are there thoughts of allowing Flickr and other video sources?

[OwenGeo]

Hi Adrian,

Yup, we are definitely looking at adding more media sources and Flickr video is on the list.

Please let us know what others you'd be interested in using and how you are using those services to store media today.

Hi Owen,

I am not sure I would be too interesting in venturing outside of YouTube. For my own private videos, I use Flickr since I use their photo service. But for 'work' videos, I likely would use YouTube. Though, it would be nice to have  Flickr as an option (I am happy to know it is on the list).

Thanks,

Adrian
