Indexhibit Support

Is the only way to embed video in your indexhibit site via Vimeo?
I have searched and searched youtube videos and the forum but can't find how to do it with html5 player.

You can upload .mov files under 2mb.

All the players, Youtube, Vimeo, .mov (uploaded), are html5 players.

Thanks, I have tried this but the thumbnails just appear as grey tiles and the videos don't play expandingfieldslive.org. Do i just use the upload option in the exhibit menu? do they use the jwplayer.js to play?
Sorry if my questions don't make much sense I am very new to this and trying to learn as best and fast as i can.
Thanks

Because you need to attach 'cover art' to videos you upload - the tools are there for doing that.

Yes, it's the JWPlayer - we bought a license so we could distribute it with Indexhibit.

I think your videos are not encoded properly. You need to output them in a particular way - Pau has posted info about this around the forum in the past.

I guess we should write our own official tutorial about video outputs - it would help folks.

Also, I wonder if the uppercase name of the file (Cally.mov) is causing a problem. Try changing the name to cally.mov and reupload...

There are a couple small quirks with uppercase in url's that I've been researching. When lowercase, things are fine (but I'm not totally sure that's the problem here).

I don't think I am doing the right thing - I followed this thread (although got quite confused towards the end) indexhibit.org/forum/thread/3155/
and tried to upload my exported quicktime files to my FTP (cyberduck) but the upload is still working and has been going for 7 hours, surely this isn't right. Is this the right thing to do - or am I still exporting the video in the wrong way?

I also have a couple of questions about layout/design/style should i ask here or start a new thread in customisations? Thanks for all your help - you are very patient!
