Hi
I'm embedding a YouTube video on a site in German.
I know how to add a YouTube link using the editor mediabox.
What I don't know is how, in the editor, I can add the command to force the choice of language and subtitles.

I've found a solution, which is to add the following command immediately after the link "&hl=de&cc_lang_pref=de" so, as an example the full link would be
"https://www.youtube.com/embed/pNerks2SGQ4?&hl=de&cc_lang_pref=de"
The editor, however, removes the added part and adds "rel=0" instead.

Can you explain how I can keep the added part, using the options in the mediabox? I'm currently just changing it by hand in the code view section.

Best regards
David

No. I'm just using the first tab in the media manager within the editor. I can get it work when I just use a text link. Here are the two versions:

<h3 style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/embed/pNerks2SGQ4?&hl=de&cc_lang_pref=de" class="jcepopup" data-mediabox="1" data-mediabox-width="560" data-mediabox-height="315">Das Friedens-Bildungs-Programm - Ein Überblick</a></h3>
<p>
	<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/pNerks2SGQ4?rel=0" width="560" height="315" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; vertical-align: center;" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture"></iframe>
</p>

Hi
OK, I tried that, and it killed the whole frontend of the site. I had to reinstall the previous version and the site was as before.

It's not clear to me if I should just append the command to the link, as I did in the text link. I tried to do that, but it wouldn't save it all. Just cleared it back to the standard YouTube short code link.

Ok - I did that.
What happens now, is that when I add the parameter as a link like this : "https://www.youtube.com/embed/pNerks2SGQ4?&hl=de&cc_lang_pref=de"
and play the video, it works.
When I check to see if the parameter has been added in the media manager, it has not been retained, and it plays without that parameter again.

So it is the retention which seems to be the problem.

As an aside, I appreciate you adding this - it makes it so much more user-friendly when they don't have to find out where the settings are on YouTube. I'm sure this will be used a lot in future.
