Thank you!

You can easily insert videos into Kunena by installing the FREE JPlayer extension. You can then just use the directions on the page linked here: extensions.joomla.org/extensions/multime...yers-a-gallery/11572 - to insert a video into your forums.

Looks like JPlayer functionality no longer works in Kunena 1.7.

OK, remember to set Joomla Content Plugin Support to YES, and JPlayer will take care of all your video needs, in Kunena and Joomla.

My site is using Jomsocial, and it seems that Kunena is the forum of choice and has integration for it.

But really, can Kunena not upload videos? Users don't want to have to spend the time uploading to a 3rd party site and then embedding.

Is it possible to use jomsocial's built in video upload feature?

Please help, this is not acceptable, most forums can upload videos.

To be honost....on most site's you can't upload videos....and there are 2 really good reasons for that:

- Videos are large files....it will fill up your server space really fast
- Playing videos consumes lots of bandwith...

Uploading video's to your own site just costs too much....

(Free unlimited hosters will not allow you to host a site with lots of video's and use of excessive bandwith)

I understand, but at the same time Jomsocial allows vid uploads, and using amazon storage makes it cheap(like 9 cents per gb).

Most users would not be uploading, but a few will want to.

I tried using the video button in the editor, and it put in in the message but the video does not do anything or appear. Is there something else tat I need to do to allow videos to be imbedded?
