Embedding video query

NSEU DevOps

Hello,

I have a query with regards to video embedding

We have created a number of training videos for my organisation. That we wish to embed into confluence. However, these are locally hosted.

We can upload these videos to Confluence however with our current setup. It does not allow us to embed the videos (they are just shown as a download link).

The end goal is not to rely on an external source for training videos. Is there an application that can resolve this? or does Confluence's core software allow this and I'm missing an option.

Current Confluence Setup:

Confluence 7.13.3 Running on a datacenter commercial license.

Thanks for reading and hopefully resolving this query.

Edit: Its a movie codec problem. WMV's don't seem to be supported. So we've converted to MP4 and that resolved the problem.

Hi @NSEU DevOps ,

after uploading a video as an attachment, you should be able to embed it in a confluence page through the Multimedia Macro https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/multimedia-macro-228622735.html

Hi @Fabio Racobaldo _Catworkx_

Thanks for your post. I had tried this originally but unfortunately it didn't seem to work for me.

I think its a problem with the confluence configuration or something on the back end. I also believe its related to HTML5 (through further investigation).

Is there any way I can check (Apart from the obvious test of trying to add a video to Confluence just to see what the result is) to see if HTML5 is supported within our Confluence instance.

What file formats does the multimedia app support? The videos I am trying to embed are WMV files. Should I try and convert them to a different format?

Further information from the above:

I have tried the YouTube route and that works so I guess we do support HTML5. However, YouTube may not be the preferred route for the business.

So it must be a plugin issue or a Confluence setup issue.

Edit: Its a movie codec problem. WMV's don't seem to be supported. So we've converted to MP4 and that resolved the problem.
