Video data

Postby kubitus » Thu Dec 13, 2018 12:42 am

Hello,
after some absence, I am back studying my vocabs with Flashcards Deluxe.
Now, I was trying to setup a link which should show to a Youtube video.
I have searched inside the forum and the app help and came up with the following.
I am using Android and FlashcardsDelux latest versions!

I am using Excel to setup my spreadsheet. The spreadsheet is saved on my Dropbox account.
First column I have named "Text 1" , second column I have named "Picture 1"
under Text 1 I have set the title of the video, in this excample: Spanien: Francos langer Schatten | ARTE Re: Doku
under Picture 1 I have set the link to the video (incl. the "embed"): https://www.youtube.com/embed/watch?v=_8zvPZ8Hlyg

I see the standard black embeded Youtube video Start Button. But it wont play.

It gives an error message:

Es ist ein Fehler aufgetreten (there has been an error)
Bitte versuchen Sie es später nocheinmal (please try again later)
Wiedergabe-ID: LwK3QGLxmXvlOtuW (playback-ID LwK3QGLxmXvlOtuW)

What am I doing wrong?
Help is very much apprichated!
Thanks!

Hi Ernie,
thanks for getting back to me.
I changed the link, but still the error exist.
I took the link which is "provided" in the help inside the app, if you look up "videos".
Also this link to a Youtube video did not work.

Hm, do I need to set up something special inside the App or on my phone?

Try downloading a "private deck" I created:
+ (add deck), Private deck
deck code = videotest

That works for me on Android. If it doesn't work for you, let me know, but I'm really out of ideas. No idea why it doesn't work. I'm sorry.
