Hi All,

I'm new to Oxwall so please excuse me if this seems a stupid question but ....

How do i upload videos that people can watch?

Most of the people that will access my website are in China so to embed YouTube or any others is out the question (most are banned or blocked here). I hope to download some training videos and upload them to my server for students to watch.

Any ideas would be useful.

Cheers

Martin

Hi Rebecca, I have tried the Video Uploader - Redesigned but it just crashes my site. It will upload a video and then stop. I have left it for 8 hours to upload a 1.9mb video, I had to go into the server and kill the processes.

Kieron, I am trying to do this but it keeps telling me "Video resource is not allowed" can you please tell me what format to embed the file? I am trying with MP4 file format. also, how to embed the video file on my server? I have uploaded the file and copied the url but that is not working.

Anyone with any ideas??

might need to check with your server if your allowed to host videos first, but mp4 should work. add a folder into the public directory, call it vidz or something like that, then add a rewrite condition in to your .htaccess file allowing access to that folder. then use the youtube iframe (or an iframe of any type really) to embed the video on your site.

eg..

upload a mp4 file into your public directory in to a folder called vidz

( Fact: adding the video into the folder is better other wise you will need to make an rewrite condition in .htaccess for every video instead of just one folder one time)

then add the rewrite condition in to .htaccess file

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/vidz/

now take youtubes iframe code and add your video url to the iframe like so:

then try embed this into the video plugin the same way you would any other youtube video.

+1 randell i forgot to mention about the .htaccess edit

Austeyr Jan 26 '15

ok we have solved this issue, what i said above plus adding his domain in to Allowed resources list has sorted it out videos can now be uploaded. well by admin at least the whole china thing still is a issue but that's prob due to there censorship not oxwall however that's another thing all together.

To upload videos in any learning management software:

Access the desired section or module within your LMS.
Follow the platform-specific instructions to upload the video file.
Provide necessary details or descriptions and save the changes to make the video available for learners.
