Add video

There are two ways to add video to a page. 

Option 1:

Utilize Video Block component to insert video.
Note: Video Block component only accept Youtube or Vimeo video at this moment.

Option 2:

Utilize Gallery component to insert video to the right rail.
Note: Gallery component only accepts Vimeo mp4 at this moment.

Option 3:

Utilize Generic Content component to insert video's iframe embed code.
Note: We do not recommend this option due to the inconsistent result from the iframe and AEM Rich Text editor. From our past experiences, AEM Rich Text Editor will strip out elements within the iframe embed code and causing the iframe to fail. Please only consider using it only if you understand the risk.

Troubleshooting

Which video hosting services are supported?
Currently, only NYU Stream, Youtube, and Vimeo are supported. We're looking into supporting other video hosting services in the future.

Can I upload the video to the DAM and embed it on the page?
We strongly discourage our users upload any large files to the DAM. Users should utilize third-party video hosting/streaming services such as NYU Stream, Youtube, or Vimeo to host their videos. These video hosting services are designed specifically to stream videos efficiently and they have better capabilities to serve multiple viewers at the same time compared to a CMS. You will also have more controls on the videos such as privacy control and it's easier to share your videos on social media.
