Ha ! Just Google "Sketch video import" and you'll find a similar mysterious incapacity in the Sketch ecosphere. There's no mention of a plug-in for that on theire Extensions page, there's some flawed plug-in supporting GIF import (one reviewer reported he quicly disabled it again), and another one to use linked YouTube videos (so you first need to upload them and be online to preview them). So the grass isn't much greener on the other side.

Like I said: video is a can of worms...

Hello!!

Is it possible to include videos within the XD prototypes? If so, how do you add the videos?

thanx, Canan

That feature isn't currently available but according to the Feature Request page it has been started so they are working on it.

Hey,

I am developing a voice prototype for a smartphone app. The user should be able to order a product with his voice, but at the same time he can view it on his smartphone. For this purpose, the product should rotate on its own axis while the voice interface reads the product information. Is there a way to do something like this in Adobe xd?

So far I have created four screens that show the different views of the product and animate them as sliders. But that is not very satisfactory.

Can you now insert a video or an animated gif or animate one or more elements independently of the voice input and output? I am really grateful for tips and tricks 🙂

Hi Ivy, you can definitely create the concept of animation but not use an animated gif or video at this point in time.

Have a look at the following links and see if you can prepare your image based on what is currently possible with XD.

HI, I'm new to Xd,

I was wondering if its possible to use custom animations created in After Effects within Xd? I

found some tutorials that show how to export out of Xd to AE, but not the other way around.

I guess I would export a .mp4 from AE then import it into Xd? and use a trigger?...

thanks!

[Atul_Saini]

Hi Kingdome,

Thanks for using Adobe XD and sharing your feedback about importing .mp4 to XD. This feature has already been raised here: - Import Videos & Animated GIFs to show in interactive preview – Adobe XD Feedback : Feature Requests ... I would request you to upvote it and share your comments as well.

Thanks,

I think I found a workaround for gifs. It's a bit impractical but if your client NEEDS see animation, this may work. Take a look at the top nav bar animation of the revolving orb. This doesn't use auto-animate.

You MUST view in full. For some reason YouTube crops videos funny. https://youtu.be/X1fFTP2EE_I

[Andre_Bar]

Nice! How did you do this?

[Andre_Bar]

Ok, I guess I just figured it out 😄

Cool!  Have you used time-triggered overlay animation for each frame? It seams to work, but with some flickering between frames. :-S How did you solve it?

Here is my sample XD file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JQGKCnQHMJ6LWzmG2oQbm2jivR4NpwrC

[ivanstudios.com]

Ah, I see. The solution is to use Trigger>Time>.1 Action Type>Transition, PRESERVE SCROLL POSITION (sorry for yelling, but without this checkbox on, you won't get good results.), Animation>none.

Here's my source file. The layers are a mess, but you can deconstruct it.

[Andre_Bar]

Ok, now I see what you meant writing "It's a bit impractical" 😄

Bu seams to be nacassary to make it run smoothly. However, dublicating the whole artboard could be really a mess. Maybe using instancing could make it easear to keep it "editable" (editing first artboard will edit all). Like this:

Thanks for the file and for sharing your approach!

[ivanstudios.com]

Yes, I see what you mean! I realized that your approach would be necessary (making components) to keep everything easier to edit when going back. Actually, in my new home board, I have components within components nested down to the bottom. This way the only this you'd need to change is the animating object from board to board. I have (hopefully) 700 boards for 10 seconds of animation so using components makes things as simple as you can make it. Glad to share, hope it helps! ivanstudios.com

Here's the updated source file guys.
