Youtube Embed not playing

Pastor Gary

So, I've used Youtube embeds for years, but today they dont' appear to be working… what gives?

Sorry for being a bit late with a reply Pastor Gary. YouTube don't really like folk showing their content other than in the YouTube Apps so they change their algorithm every now and then just to make things difficult.

I think it is more due to advertising revenue because I am pretty sure that most content providers provide content for others to see.

I used to us a program called 'Airy' to download items to use with Proclaim but the lates changes by YouTube seem to have beaten that program however those same changes currently allow me to use YouTube web addresses in the 'Web Page' item.

No doubt things will change again before very long an another solution will need to be found. However if you try the 'Web Page' item now it may well work; but beware! it may not work next week.
