I installed audio files as directed. On Chrome the audio plays automatically when a page is open. Not set up to do this. Have players for viewers to click on. Seems like the audio works ok on Internet Explorer. Looking for the fix. Thx.

Delete each one and add it back as described in this topic. It will replace the old media player with the new one.

I am trying to post a video to our website and it says it can only post a HTML5. The video I have in not in that format. Is there another format that I can use and it pay automatically when someone comes to website?

Browsers are dropping support for these types of media files and plug in based players. You will need to convert the media file to mp4 and delete the current one. Use the instructions at the top of this page to add the new media player that does not require a plug in.

Good Morning,
I am trying to use the mixed content design and upload a video that I have on my computer I am trying to see how I can accomplish that as everything I try to do is asking for vimeo and youtube. Can someone direct me to the correct way to accomplish this as I do not see where I can change the video player to where I can just upload from my computer.

Hello Kandie7481
The instructions in this post are for a builder we used to use, but is not used for new sites. The builder you are on does not allow video uploads. You will need to go through either Vimeo or Youtube and upload your video there.
