problem with uploading videos
-
Hello,
I’m using wordpress for my Pianocean project.
I use to post videos on the site that appears like videos, not only links. Now, I’m trying to uplaod some new videos but only the link appears, no visaul of it. When I try with ‘Add Media’ and import from URL, it sais the file isn’t supported. I’ve tryed with many different videos, says the same.
Can you tell me what to do?
Thanks a million for your attention. Mrs Huysmans. -
You did not state the video source or provide the URL do I have to use an example. When there is only a link and no video displayed, and you are embedding a video from a source that is supported by wordpress.com, that’s on you. Go to the relevant video troubleshooting section (example below) and you will find your solution.
The video embeds that WordPress.com supports for all of our blogs – no upgrade required are found here.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/Video shortcodes are here http://en.support.wordpress.com/shortcodes/#video
Note to post your own videos requires a videopress upgrade unless they are on youtube or another source site that is supported and the videopress support doc location is https://en.support.wordpress.com/videopress/
Example:
For youtube embedding into wordpress.COM blogs see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/youtube/For using the shortcode see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/youtube/#embedding-with-a-shortcode
For troubleshooting see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/youtube/#troubleshooting
NOTE: If you are trying to embed a youtube channel code that will not work.
If you still have issues with a specific video please provide the video URL and also the URL of the post.
