Answer
Embedding the video in an email (without using templates)
If you are trying to embed a video directly within an email, please note that only some email clients support inline video playback. You can, however, take a screenshot of the video with the play button and add a hyperlink to the image pasted into the email.
Embedding the video into another platform
Although some platforms may allow you to add a YouTube video to your page by providing a link to the URL, the platform you are currently using may not have Vidyard whitelisted as a video provider and may not to be able to pull in the thumbnail and video automatically.
If embedding the video within an online webpage, please use the player embed codes from your account dashboard (for more information see - how to embed your player), or use the method above to hyperlink an image.
