Just a very simple question... is there anyway to embed a video (youtube, flash

html view? is there any widget that allows doing that? On the other side... How
could upload videos to website if possible?

Hi Ana,

If you're using the latest trunk or the saas-4 branch, embedded videos are directly supported by the media widget. Drag&drop a building block that includes an image and you can double-click on the image to select a video to embed instead. It does not support direct video upload, though; the preferred method is to upload your videos on your favorite platform (Youtube/DailyMotion/Vimeo) and embed them in the website. This is to ensure that all visitors will have a good streaming experience, since these platforms typically have proper video players (including mobile versions), as well as appropriate bandwidth and distribution networks for streaming (CDNs, etc.).
