Is ther some specifications to respect, format, size and weight ?

  • Format: mp4
  • Size: depends on your needs, bigger file means better quality but more KB to load
  • Weight: 1-9M ? , but sometimes file is too big to upload via Joomla because of PHP settings or Joomla Media settings

Hello

Thank you for your query. There is a work-around you can try. Can you manually upload the local video to a folder on your server, then insert the link in the video addon?

If I may....

if you upload video file (.mp4) by FTP tool you have to use "Browse folder" to find it,

but
if somehow you still don't see it - just put URL manually, for example, /images/video/intro.mp4 inside video URL field.


If you would upload thru SPPB you should be able to see video files in "videos"
