    The first part of your question is a resounding "yes." There are several threads on here and the beta forum about adding or embeding a YouTube video. However as far as I know, no one has tackled controling video through EA. I suppose it would be possible using something like videojs.

    Thamk you for your quick reply,

    I was hoping to add video in a more seamless way,

    as part of an interactive animation. So for instance

    when the mouseover an element water splashes.

    I did not find a thread about embedding video.

    any ideas?

    This one talks about adding an MP4:

    And this is the thread I used to embed a YouTube video:

    You can do what you are looking for. The big challenge will be managing the media. If you use an MP4 video, it will not work in Firefox. Sadly we are back to the days of having to encode multiple video flavors for the various platforms and broswers. (I miss FLV already.)

     

     

     

    By the way, a note to Adobe, it appears that the "Search" above only searches forum topic titles (?) So although that thread mentions VIDEO and YOUTUBE quite a bit, a search does not turn up that thread at all because the title is:

    How to create several youtubeclips in videocontainer

    thank you, I will look into these options,

    I noticed that gif animations do work, and

    they are universal.
