As the title really.
My brother's band do a silly 'Elf Yourself' video each year and I'm having trouble getting it to play properly.
I've uploaded the file and notice that on playing there's just audio and no video. This happens when both added as a video block or when viewing it in the media storage area. It's an MP4 file and is 13MB with decent res.
Some Googling suggests that only people with a paid Wordpress license can upload and display video directly, with everyone else needing to use the likes of Vimeo/YouTube and embed instead. If that's the case, that's fine, but I wanted to check first before I tell my brother to put this on his band's YouTube site.
Previously I'm sure they used to do a mix of YouTube embedding and direct uploading but, as the band had a bit of a split earlier in the year, the chap who used to do this is no longer around so I don't know what they did to make it work.
Fanks!
