Is anyone from Adobe listening to us?
This needs fixing, come on guys. I've been an advocate of Adobe since I used to have to buy it out of a box... 1994 in fact. Please respond.

When are you going to fix this????? I'm paying €50 a program that doesn't work!!!!

My first time trying to use indesign for a presentation with video and I discover no visible player controls after pdf output. Apparently under review means, sorry, you're gonna have to deal with that for the foreseeable future.

OMG seriously! What the ****. Why has this not been fixed yet? We had it before. this is crazy.

i'm trying to add a video on indesign 2020, but it's not working.

I can also confirm this is happening inside Acrobat Pro DC when adding MP4 Videos using Rich Media.
Things not working are Playback Control Not Working/ Saving, "Disable When" Settings. Maddening when 3 Videos Audio is playing simultaneously.

No point of having video's if you can't control them.

Has this been resolved yet? I seem to be having the same issue many months later.

Ouch. This shouldn't have been removed.

ridiculous. need to be fixed asap, dishing out 50$ for broken features.

Wow 6 months ago they were told about this problem and still no change/solution.
I had to disappoint a client who needed the use of this feature.

I think this is very amateurish not listening to the users needs of one of the biggest file standards in the world. Ridiculous, I would totally turn my back on Adobe but have a CC subscription thru my work. Been publishing tons of PDFs with video over the years. Usually software is getting better over the years except Adobe?

i found the media button thanks to reading the comments. you have to go to window>interactive>media and the button will return

Why did you remove the features within this to begin with?
And how do I now link a video online to play within my document? Is there another way of doing this or have you removed this all together in 2020.

And it’s still not fixed? 🙀

Has this been resolved? We have clients in an urgent need

Yes, I agree with the chorus that is singing the need of the media control panel in Adobe Indesign's controller and navigation features. I work in the industry of technical writing and have used Adobe indesign to write user guides for clients. As I am updating guides to make the print media be more interactive it is sad to see that this basic control function is not present in the more up to date versions of InDesign. I have had to install a legacy version of the software to even be able to work with this but I know that at some point I will have to find another way or software to get what i need out of technical writing. In testing how well the media gets exported I see that Flash player will no longer be supported as of December 2020? How will this affect media that is imbedded in interactive PDFs? Please let me know! I need to find a solution if this will not allow videos to play beyond Dec 2020.
