Any idea why?
I do not know. Did you add a border to allow for the edge to move ?
Started again from scratch following your video and again the edges of the flag stay straight and the parts in the flag distort. Cant work it out
Displace maps work "backwards". They tell where a pixel in the map comes from, not where it goes to.
So your your displace map (shaped like the wavy flag) maps the straight flag into a shape (probably the selection) which is the outline of the wavy flag.
Whether that actually works using the wavy flag greyscale image is a very different matter, which I will leave to the author of the original tutorial (IMHO, sheer luck...).
