    From Presto:

    “I don’t think you’d want to call the media hub. The Media Hub is media + player settings. This includes chapters, poster image, performance settings, controls, overlays, etc. I’m assuming your users won’t have access to this interface.

    Instead, you’ll likely want to use the regular media library, and output it in the player like this:
    <?php

    do_shortcode(‘[presto_player src=”yourvideo.mp4″ preset=1]’);

    Note that I just added the video url right there – no need to select from a media hub, just provide the url. I’ve also added a preset that you can use for all users if you want.”

    Does that help?

    I continue to go back and forth with Presto. I am hoping they will join the thread here. If Presto Player was not part of the equation and I wanted to add a just a video from the media hug, how would I call it from the form?

    Also, media Hug is one of the “Post Types”. Is there any other type of post you could use other than Post? Just looking where it can plug in. Preto works very well with the block editor, which I do not believe you support.

    They sent a reply about using short codes to link the videos. This does not get us to where we need to be. I await a better reply.

    Currently, Presto invokes “Video Add” from the block editor or other editor. Is there a way to call a block editor function as a field or the same function they call? It needs to allow you to select or upload a video and then place it as the post.

    Thank you for your timely and great reply. It is really great you are willing to assist! I have request the information from Presto Made.

    If I am correct, we are going to be able to use your plugin with Presto to add videos and podcasts to the blog with your assistance. This is very cool!

    Once I hear back from Presto, I will update here.
