You can insert videos into documents, discussions, or blog posts, as well as comments
and replies.
When you're creating or editing a document, discussion, blog post, or commenting or
replying to something, click the Insert Video button from the
formatting toolbar. A dialog opens enabling you to insert videos from the web. If the
enhanced video feature is available in your community, you can also insert videos from
your computer or videos that you previously uploaded to the community.
Here's how to upload a video from different locations:
- From the web: you can embed code or enter the video URL from any video site
listed on embed.ly's provider page.
Just make sure you select the
video site, then insert the link or code, and then click Insert Video.
- From your computer: if the enhanced video feature is available in your
community, you simply need to browse to the video location and click Insert
Video. You also have the option to click Record from webcam to record
and upload your video right away. Click the record button to start your recording,
then again to stop it, and then click Upload and Insert Video.
- From Your Videos: if the enhanced video feature is available and you've
previously added and published a video in a place, you'll see the video listed when
you click From Your Videos. Select the video you want to insert, then click
Insert Video. The From Your Videos section only lists
videos that have been previously embedded in content belonging to the same place.
For example, after you insert the JiveTraining.avi into the
September Training document in the Training group, and the video completes encoding,
you'll see it in the From Your Videos list when you try to embed a video in any
other content in the Training group.
