I was following this tutorial video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyS8eiq14G8 and I am stuck. I don't know why I cant find the UV map input in the nodes at 15:57 if that video is my blender. Problem I am facing is that I can't find the UV mapping option when I go to ShiftA > Input in the node editor.
I am using linux 14.04 with blender version 2.69.

$\begingroup$ See blender.stackexchange.com/questions/2176/…. I think you won't find UV Map node in 2.69; you can use Attribute node if not upgrading Blender. $\endgroup$– Mr ZakMay 5, 2016 at 15:48

What he did was Shift+A>Input>UV Map and place this node into the Image Texture node as shown below:
Note that the version used in the linked video is 2.71, I don't know if this was a node added after 2.69, so it may not hurt to grab a more current release (2.77a) from Blender.org
As an alternative to this node however, adding an Input>texture coordinate node, and using the UV Output should work just as well if this node is indeed unavailable in your version.
