Has anyone else experienced videos not streaming in published projects in their LMS or when previewing in web browser using Cap. 7? I just started to experience this today, I just see the slide background color. If anyone has issues. Do you know of a solution?

Thank you,

    If I recall correctly, Google updated the API for embedded YouTube videos and unfortunately, this made embedding YouTube videos using the widget for this in Adobe Captivate 7, not functional. This was corrected in later versions of Captivate.

    The workaround for this is to insert a web object and use the YouTube embed code which you can get from the share options from any YouTube video.
