Inserting Joomla-Articles with Pictures and Video-Links

JungOs

Hello, I tried AdyMailing Free (Version 5) - and it was easy to put an Joomla-article into an newsletter. It was embedded with pictures and video-links.
Now I bought AcyMailing Essential - and after inserting an article of joomla there is only text visible.
When I go to the configuration and switch to the coding format "binary" oder "quoted printable" I can see the picture of the article. But I cannot see the embedded Youtube-Videos.
How can I insert articles complete with the Youtube-Link?

Hi,

You ask a question about v5 but you label it as v6. So which version is this about?

Sorry for my unclear posting. I tried the free version (V. 5) and bought Acymailing Essential (V. 6). So my problem is with V. 6.

Hi,

Email clients in general don't support video in emails.

If you see a video in a newsletter, that is NOT the real video but faked one.

The following link can give you an idea of how to achieve it.

You can see how this guy did it for another newsletter platform but the principle is the same

Basically, you create an animated GIF out of the video content and use that animated GIF in the newsletter.
