If you're encountering issues while trying to integrate a YouTube video into your Product Hunt listing, there are several potential causes and solutions to explore. This guide will help troubleshoot common problems and provide alternative solutions if needed.

Newly uploaded videos may not be immediately available for integration due to processing delays. If this is the case, wait approximately 12 hours and then try again. YouTube needs some time to process videos fully before they can be added to external platforms like Product Hunt.

Errors may also occur if the YouTube video’s sharing settings are restrictive. Ensure that your video settings allow public sharing or embedding, as restrictive settings can prevent your video from being added to your listing. Check your video’s visibility settings in YouTube, ensure they’re appropriately configured, and then attempt the integration again.

If you’re unable to successfully add a YouTube video to your Product Hunt listing despite troubleshooting, consider using an alternative platform to display your demo video, such as:

The tools above allow you to create and share embeddable videos which might be better suited to your Product Hunt listing. Note that compatibility and availability of these platforms may vary, so it’s best to explore multiple options to find the right fit for your needs.
