    Hi Gayathri,

    I have tried both URL's on a 7.11.1 install of Umbraco. Both work.

    One thing can be is that your website doesn't have access to the internet. The URL is retreived server side, so when the server doesn't have internet access.

    And just to be sure can you post the contents of your /Config/EmbeddedMedia.config file to be sure nothing is configured wrong in there

    i can see the config in /config/embeddedmedia.config

    It happens the same to me with Twitter, it has been working correctly for 1 year aprox and it suddently stopped working. Maybe it is related to the last Twitter upgrade?

    This is my config for Twitter:

    <provider name="Twitter" type="Umbraco.Web.Media.EmbedProviders.OEmbedJson, umbraco">
    <urlShemeRegex><![CDATA[twitter\.com/]]></urlShemeRegex>
    <apiEndpoint><![CDATA[https://publish.twitter.com/oembed]]></apiEndpoint>
    <requestParams type="Umbraco.Web.Media.EmbedProviders.Settings.Dictionary, umbraco"></requestParams>

    I'm having the same issue, I'm not able to embed anything from any of the approved providers in the Rich Text Editor.

    Getting the same error:

    Could not embed media - please ensure the URL is valid.

    I've confirmed the server has access to the internet.

    I have tried numerous random youtube videos, Vimeo videos, etc. Nothing seems to work.

    Using Umbraco 8.1.4

    Has anyone been able to resolve this issue. I used to be able to embed Youtube videos and all of sudden it stop working. What's strange is it's working on my Dev and Test environment.

    Ps I'm using Umbraco 7.12.3

    I have this issue on 7.12.3 too. Works locally but not on production. Anyone have any ideas (other than upgrading, which will be difficult to test if it doesn't happen locally)?

    Hi

    This is my first post in a while so bear with me.

    I started to get the 'Could not embed media - please ensure the URL is valid' when trying to embed YouTube videos via the RTE on my 7.11.2 live site, however my local copy works.

    This is what I've done so far:

    • Test Vimeo video - no issues
    • Tested on live and local 7.4.3 site - no issues
    • Checked server has internet access
    • Checked file permissions
      <!-- Youtube Settings -->   <provider name="Youtube" type="Umbraco.Web.Media.EmbedProviders.OEmbedVideo, umbraco">
    <urlShemeRegex><![CDATA[youtu(?:\.be|be\.com)/(?:(.*)v(/|=)|(.*/)?)([a-zA-Z0-9-_]+)]]></urlShemeRegex>
    <apiEndpoint><![CDATA[https://www.youtube.com/oembed]]></apiEndpoint>
    <requestParams type="Umbraco.Web.Media.EmbedProviders.Settings.Dictionary, umbraco">
      <param name="iframe">1</param>
      <param name="format">xml</param>
      <param name="scheme">https</param>
    </requestParams>   </provider>
    

    I'm wondering if anyone was able to resolve the issue?
