create Carousel Sets option is not available in AEM 6.2

I am trying to use an available General Component 'Carousel'. But when I tried, it's not allowing me to choose anything other than Pages. But the expectation is that the Carousel Component will allow to choose 'Images', 'Videos' and such. So, then I tried to see if I can create 'Carousel Sets' and see if I can use that in Carouse Component. But when I navigated to Assets -> (Folder)  and clicked on 'Create' option, the drop-down doesn't have any option named 'Carousel Sets'. Please find the screenshot of the same below. Could you please help me how to get that option visible and working?

Thanks, Ravi

Hi 

First you need to enable dynamic media for this.

1. In CRXDE Lite, navigate to /etc/dam/dynamicmediaconfig.

2. Set the value of dynamicMediaEnabled from False to True and click Save All.

3. Return to AEM Sites and in Tools, open the web console and go to OSGi bundles (or navigate to http://<host>:<port>/system/console/bundles).

4. In the OSGI bundles, find Adobe CQ DAM Scene7 Dynamic Imaging (com.adobe.cq.dam.cq-scene7-imaging) bundle. Restart it.

5. Request http://<host>:<port>/is/image and make sure Image Server is now running. 

 

Now check the create button.

Kautuk,

That's helped to achieve my need perfectly. I'm able to make it work in my local machine. Thanks so much. But..
When I tried to do the same in another box, I'm able to see the option Create -> Carousel Set. But when I tried to create a Carousel Set, the image I'm adding to the Slide is not loading at all. Is this any known bug? I have attached the screenshot of the same.

Thanks, Ravi
