Youtube Video embettet Error

I´ve embettet Youtube Videos using iframe.

I choose the link of the video in "share" "embeded". The video is shown with the titel image, however once i press play, there is an error and no video is shown.

translated into english the error is like: "An error occured, try again later".

It happens with different videos too. However, if i use the youtube video link in the browser, the very same videos work. However then, its not just the video embeted, but the full youtube site.

    Here are some more Information (Code)

    I tried <video> as well as <iframe> as well as <embed>. In the case of video, the video stays black, no video there. in the 2 other cases the video is previed, but the error from above occures while trying to run it. And again the video plays if i use the url of the browser that shows the youtube page as a whole and the videos work.
    <video src=" autoplay width="641" height="271">
    </video>
    
    <iframe width="420" height="315" src=" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
    
    <embed src=" width="192" height="189"></embed>
    

    1. Any solution to how to just embed the video?

    2. Is ther a way to cut the audio of a video at a specific point? OR let the video continue to play its audio on a new passage?
  • The solution to 1. is one of the following: deleting browser cash, restart and/or
    -> save the twine project as a .html file outside of your twine directory. Once it is fully html it works.

    To 2. i have no clue yet. Starting a Video at a specific point is easy: add #t=1m20s if you want to start it at 1 minute 20 secounds, but stopping it a certan point, or leaving it on even when a new passage starts, i do not know. ?
  • 3. The videos do not start except with user input. Stuff like &autoplay does not work in the link, neither does setting autoplay="1" or autoplay="true". Does anyone have solved the issue with playing videos?
  • It has to go on the URL for YouTube embeds. It also has to be properly formatted (see: URL @Wikipedia, take particular note of the query string syntax). TL;DR: The query string should be preceded by a question mark, while the individual key/value pairs of the query string are delimited by ampersands (or semi-colons, though their use is rare).

    For example:
    
    
    Full example:
    <iframe src=" width="640" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
    
    The semi-colon after the src attribute is spurious.
  • thx for answering.

    I have tried that, it did not work.

    I think i at least found the underlying problem:

    And now i link to the video thread so have only one thread regarding this issue.
