Videos not showing up anymore in 6.1.8

Hi,
Just upgraded to 6.1.8 and the videos using the “player” option with a link to a vimeo don’t work anymore.
Videos using the option “embed” are still OK.
Lukily, this is a staging site, I did not update the public site yet.
Please help! And by the way, I can’t find out how to revert to 6.1.7 other than restoring a back-up, which means I would loose all the work I did after moving to 6.1.8.

Hello Patrick,

Thanks for writing in!

Please be advised that the Video element can only be used to embed a video code or use to play a direct video file. The Video element does not allow Youtube and Vimeo links as video sources. It may have worked in the previous versions, but still, you are using the element incorrectly which is why you were having the issue. When you use the Player mode, your video source should end with *.mp4, *.ogv, or *.webm. I would recommend that you use the Vimeo video embed code instead.

Best Regards.

Too bad. It was so much easier the way it worked before.
But thanks anyway.
