Working With Internal Video Content Items

If you create a new internal video content item in Content Studio, then a File Open dialog is immediately displayed. Depending on how the content item has been defined, this dialog will usually only allow you to select certain video file types. Select a video file to upload to the Content Engine and click OK. The dialog then disappears and the video file you have selected is first uploaded and then sent to VME Online for transcoding.

When transcoding is complete (which may take some time), details of the transcoded versions of your video are displayed in a table in the video field:

How many transcoded versions appear in the table, and what characteristics they have is determined by the set-up on your VME Online server.

You can change the content of the video field by clicking on the Select video... button again and selecting a new video. The new video is then transcoded and the table is updated with the results.
