YouTube and Vimeo

If you store videos on YouTube or Vimeo, or if you use third-party movies from these providers in your content, you can add these to web-based outputs.

Options:

  • Embedded You can use Insert > Multimedia to embed the video in the content file. In addition, you can specify advanced settings, such as whether to automatically start the movie when it displays, and what kind of information to display on the movie (e.g., movie title, player branding). The options available depend on the type of movie you are inserting.
  • Linked You can use Insert > Hyperlink. When you use this option, the user must click the text link in order to open the movie. When you insert a YouTube or Vimeo link in your output, it will send you to the host's website to play the movie.

Note When you insert a YouTube or Vimeo movie (using the Insert > Multimedia option), these movies are not stored in your Resources > Multimedia folder like other movie types, because Flare references them from the web.
