PCloud compatible?

    One of the reviewers mentioned you can use pcloud. This is what I would like to confirm.

    I want to create video galleries on www.ads-software.com (not .com). I have a Vimeo account, and there is a way to embed in a plugin called Vimeography. However, most of my videos are stored on pcloud, and I thought if there were a way to kill two birds with one stone, I could somehow link /embed directly from pcloud to WordPress. That way I wouldn’t have to upload first to vimeo.

    (Not I want to have galleries, but just display a single video).

    Tryingjust to display a single video using PCloud’s embed/link to WordPress did not work. And PCloud told me once they don’t have that function, yet in the reviews one person mentioned it is supported with Swamrify.

    Can you confirm whether/how I can use PCloud. Or another online cloud storage service (I really would not like to have multiple media hosting.

    Thank you!

    With our plugin, you supply that original video source(pCloud in your case) as the source to our video player. Then we will automatically import and optimize that video for streaming to desktop/mobile/tablet/etc. All of the streaming will then occur on our network so it won’t use up your pCloud bandwidth.

    We have many customers doing exactly what you describe, where they use pCloud for their media storage of the original files, and then supply that original URL to our player for their actual website so that we handle all of the streaming optimization and bandwidth components.

    We just provide the video player and streaming component. So you would have to use a separate plugin or builder to create the galleries, but that is a fairly standard feature of most builders.

    Hi,

    I have tried to embed the following video on our blog using this plugin:

    https://e.pcloud.link/publink/show?code=XZr2RXZRo9yDDr4J7hrYKlhS0KpBuEcVtTk

    I’m using the following code:

    [smartvideo src="https://edef1.pcloud.com/cBZwRhUskZDVA4aXZZZ0K2UG7ZQ5ZZDc5ZkZr2y6Z57ZaZl7Zx7Zs7Zh7ZxZSZTZR7Z27Zb7ZlZF7Zr2RXZPFP4CXW2FTX1wJs6BDwGAbFh6A7X/2021%2002%2029%20Schnaps%20se%20soul%C3%A8ve.mp4" width="1280" height="720"]

    Nothing is rendered on the page. Am I doing something wrong? Changing width / height to match video resolution doesn’t seem to help.

    Thanks in advance,

    T&C

    This looks correct in terms of the short code, but if you aren’t seeing anything when you preview that page then something must need tweaked. If you don’t mind posting the URL publicly here, I can take a look at the page output to try to diagnose what is happening.

    If you would rather share the URL privately, email [email protected] and I will make sure I am on the lookout for that email to get this looked into.
