You can upload videos directly to your Video Manager or embed videos stored in online sources, for example, YouTube and Vimeo.
We recommend using a dedicated video hosting service, for example, YouTube and Vimeo. These provide unlimited storage and editing options. They are often better from an accessibility perspective as they support transcripts. Additionally, when the content is streamed it is optimised for the type of device it is being viewed on.
