Adding a YouTube or Vimeo video

There are several methods to add a YouTube or Vimeo video to your Moodle course

  1. The easiest way to add a YouTube video is to add a link to the video, by adding a URL resource.  Copy the URL of the YouTube video and paste it into the address of the URL resource.
  2. If you create link to the YouTube video in a label or Moodle page (using the chain icon in the text editor), Moodle will replace the link with the embedded video.
  3. You can also embed a video from YouTube into your course using the following steps

...

    • Add a new Page in Moodle (under resources)
    • Go to the HTML source view by clicking on the filmstrip button Image Modified  in the content box. A pop up will appear.
    • Go to YouTube or Vimeo and copy the video embed code. This is under the "Share" link.  
    • Head back to Moodle. In the pop up window, paste the video URL in the field labeled "Enter URL".
    • In the next field, give your video a friendly name.
    • Click the "Insert" button.
