Hello,

Reading the help page it looks like Video from URL is no longer an option in the Media panel. Is there another way I can place a video from a URL? Or do I have to edit the HTML output from In5?

That's awful! I have no idea why they've done this.

You can vote to restore it here:

I'll see if there's a way for in5 to make it work in the meantime.

thanks justin!
The ID team is working on adding this back.
Hi, I see that Adobe hasn't fixed this issue yet--I was just wondering if a workaround exists yet. I can download an older version of InDesign, but which version number should I use?
You can use CC 2019 for now. There should be a fix on its way.
