Hello. I did some searching in the forums but had a hard time finding the answer to my problem regarding MediaPress.
After uploading a video, I click the video icon. A lightbox pops up but a video player doesn’t appear. It only shows a link. How can I have the video player show up?
Here are some screenshots –

Hi Shannon,
Welcome to Buddydev.The problem is that mov file is not playable over web out of the box. You will need to transcode it.
To help, we have provided a transcoder(needs vps and ffmpeg software setup) or you can use any other way to do it too.

Thank you for your help Brajesh.
If I have another plugin that sends uploaded media to a third party (specifically Amazon S3), do you happy to know if it will be transcoded by Amazon S3? I know that’s probably a question for Amazon but I thought I’d ask.

Hi Shannon,
Thank you for the question. Amazon s3 does not transcode. Amazon does have a transcode service
https://aws.amazon.com/elastictranscoder/You may use it for transcoding.
