Reducing already working functionality of a well established product is always a bad idea. I guess many of us count on it will be kept. Thanks for restoring it back. Ji.

I'm sure this was some kind of crossed-wires thing, so please restore Place Video From URL functionality in InDesign asap. It is an important aspect of my business model.

Ravi, the whole value of "Place Video from URL" is that it permits use of CDNs such as YouTube and Vimeo.

Like most InDesign users, I never suspected that this functionality still, in 2019, expected the video "to be compliant with Flash Player." On the contrary, most of us assumed that because YouTube et al have long since moved away from Flash, InDesign had naturally evolved to keep up. The Help documentation online has long said that "The video must be a valid H.264-encoded file," which is NOT Flash, and doesn't mention anything about needing Flash Player..

Your marketing folks have loudly promoted creating interactive content and rich media documents with InDesign, so you should not be surprised that the disappearance of an important rich media capability is a complete shock.

If you want examples and use cases, look through the many documents up on "Publish Online." Even the Adobe-created examples for Publish Online use video.

I don't buy the idea that "it was no long possible to support this particular option,." That's an excuse, not an explanation. You do not need anyone to send you examples of video clips located on web servers. There are hundreds of millions of them online. That you even ask for them suggests that you and others are not paying attention to what your marketing division promotes and your customers rely on, far less to the current publishing scene in general.

The bottom line is that the team has removed very important functionality and should be taking URGENT action to replace it and fix the big problem you have created for your customers.

Please restore this feature!

Please restore this functionality. I haven't ever used flash but this is important to the magazines I do.
