Videos, WordPress, media library & embedding.

Firstly, upload limit is set to 8M by my server. I've changed the limit to 1000M on the hosting plan but guess I need to wait for it to propagate?

Main issue is though, I can upload videos via FTP to the uploads folder, and then use a plugin to import from said folder to library.

This allows me to put them in a post via the built in embed function.

Problem is, on localhost they play fine, on the live version, they won't play.

Anyone think of where the problem could be? Zac Gordon maybe? Thanks.

Problem solved. I forgot to apply the changes on the server to my subscription, had just changed the service plan. Can now upload via WordPress and so videos work properly.
