Embed video tag in rich text editor is not working in AEM as a cloud service

Hi,

I was trying to embed a video in rich text editor through source edit as below .On saving the dialog the video tag is getting saved in the property but when I open the dialog again the video tag is not appearing and at the same time the video is not being displayed on the page too .

<video width="100%"><source src="videoUrl" type="video/mp4"></source></video>

I have tried adding the video tag in the XSSProtection config file, unfortunately that didn't work .

Hi @venkata-nelluri for some reason doing the entry of source tag seems to be not working in config file. @arunpatidar can you help with the same? The code is above.

@venkata-nelluriif you can use this html instead:
<video src="/asset_path/video.mp4" data-type="mp.4"></video> the below code works fine:

<tag name="video" action="validate"> <attribute name="src"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value=".*" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="data-type"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value=".*" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="loop"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value=".*" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="autoplay"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value=".*" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="muted"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value=".*" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="controls"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value=".*" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="width"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="percentage" value="\d+%|100%" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> </tag>

When I am putting the source tag validation, the above code also fails but works well in without it.

Thanks you all for your solutions.

The below solution worked for me 

 

<!-- Video tag --> <tag name="video" action="validate"> <attribute name="src"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value=".*" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="data-type"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value=".*" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="loop"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value=".*" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="autoplay"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value=".*" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="muted"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value=".*" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="controls"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value="true" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="width"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="percentage" value="\d+%|100%" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> </tag>

 

I have embed the video tag as below in rich text editor 

 

<video width="100%" src="videoURL" data-type="mp.4" controls="true">&nbsp;</video>

Hi @venkata-nelluri can you share the code which you have added in xssprotection config file?

Please try this:

 

<tag name="video" action="validate"> <attribute name="width"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="percentage" value="\d+%" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> </tag> <tag name="source" action="validate"> <attribute name="src"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="anything" value=".*" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> <attribute name="type"> <regexp-list> <regexp name="video-mp4" value="video/mp4" /> </regexp-list> </attribute> </tag>

 

Also, please check your RTE is correctly made in .content.xml or use the OOTB text component for testing.

Hi @venkata-nelluri ,

Please try below rules in config which is working for me.

 

<tag name="video" action="validate">
<attribute name="width">
<regexp-list>
<regexp name="positivePercentage" />
</regexp-list>
</attribute>
</tag>

<tag name="source" action="validate">
<attribute name="src">
<regexp-list>
<regexp name="anything" />
</regexp-list>
</attribute>
<attribute name="type">
<regexp-list>
<regexp name="anything" />
</regexp-list>
</attribute>
</tag>
 
 
<video width="100%"><source src="/content/dam/project/url.mp4" type="video/mp4"></source></video>
 
 You may use JS to control the video with other attributes
 
Thanks
