How do I play a video in Joomla?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 8:04 am

There are a few ways to play videos in Joomla. The simplest way is to use the Media Library.

To do this, open the Media Library and select the video you want to play. You can then choose how to play it, either by using the Media Player or by using the Media Button.

PRO TIP: Joomla does not support playing video files by default. If you try to play a video in Joomla, it will most likely result in an error.

If you want to play the video in its own window, you can do this by using the Open In Window command in the Media Player. You can also use the Media Button to play the video in a new window, or in a separate tab.

If you want to embed the video on your website, you can do this by using the Embed command in the Media Library. You can then select the size and format of the embed, and you can also choose whether to play the video in its own window or in a new tab.

Finally, if you want to play the video in an external player, you can use the Embed Player command in the Media Library to find an external player and embed it on your website.
