Any idea what the problem is with embedding videos? I've gotten the following message for several days now:
Giulia I didn't know it was happening. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Will give it a try. Be sure to let me know about these things as soon as you notice them.
Mark
Will do. I just thought it was a Jive problem that was being worked on. But when "later" became a couple of days, I thought I ought to mention it!
Giulia They may be and it could resolve itself. If you see something like that I want to know about it so I can light fires under respective butts if necessary.

Updated: Okay Looks to be when it started. I'm not sure I understand. Does that mean the issue started on 10/21 when you posted Guaranteed To Break The Strongest Crave?
Yes but Mark, I never know if its a problem with the flash or the site. That's why I didn't bring it to you directly.
When in doubt, let me know after searching to see if someone else reported already. Thanks!

Mark I'm a little confused about something. There is no option for putting up a video in a blog or discussion from our home pages, is that correct? It has to be placed in a group or any other specific area than our own home page? I believe you made mention of this somewhere else.
Giulia I believe that you can insert a video in a discussion from the home page but not a blog from the home page.
Yes you can't do it from the pencil icon on the home page because it can't contextually know where the video is potentially being posted. You have to be in the Group or Community and then create a post in order for it to be allowed. Perhaps some day the JavaScript for the Rich Text Editor will be updated and will refresh to add the button for after you have chosen a location but for now you have to be in the intended location before you start your post.

Strange - I can by clicking on the ask and share - lol but not by using the pencil. Another oddity....
the only way I can post a video is in a discussion and often the the movie widget doesn't show until after I post. Then, I have to edit the post and then the video icon shows right of the camera icon.
First blue box on home page

Conversations You click video icon from Pencil, Actions or Ask a Question or Start a Discussion.
Ask and Share is on the Home page and it automatically posts in Conversations. In Conversations videos are permitted so that's why the icon shows up for video.
