Unable to add youtube video to revolution slider

I recently uploaded a video to YouTube for are website.
I saw that for some odd reason this error kept coming up.
when I try other YouTube videos they come up fine.
I took out the YouTube id but when I added it in this is the error I got.

I am on the lasted version of the X-Theme and am using the version included with the plugin.

Hi @ gatortech94,

Please make sure your video is public. Sometimes, Youtube takes a bit longer to process your video.

I’ve tried with some videos from Youtube and they’re still working fine. Can you share us with your video URL so we can check on my local installation?

This video will show step by step to add a Youtube video to slider: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mC8moqoGRn4

Thank you.

Here is the link to the video I am attempting to use. it’s for our school website and is public.
I even set it as public when I uploaded it.

Hey @gatotech94,

Your video actually works.

Your getting an error because you do not have a thumbnail.

You can check this documentation to set a thumbnail to your video: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/72431?hl=en. If that doesn’t work, pease contact Youtube support to learn how to setup a thumbnail for your video.

Thanks.

Thank you it may have just needed a while since uploading.
I did select for an auto-generated thumbnail so it should work fine.

You’re welcome! :slight_smile:
