Hello again, I upload some mp4 files to this page and it’s very slow to load, we cannot use it if this is the case. The videos are not that big, all are around 500kb. One is 2mb.

Any reason for this? If I can’t fix the load time I will have to scrap this and use YouTube embeds but want to see what is going on here.
Thanks
Hey mountaintopengraving,
Sorry for the late reply, I couldn’t see any videos at your link, but for self-hosted videos the browser typically looks for ogv, webm, mp4, so if you only have mp4 it could take a little bit.
Try using this converter to make your ogv & webm file then upload them to the same directory as your mp4 via ftp and same file names.
You may also want to add this to your .htaccess file:
# Video
AddType video / ogg .ogv
AddType video / mp4 .mp4.m4v.f4v.f4p
AddType video / webm .webm
AddType video / x - flv .flv
Best regards,
Mike
