Template:Video

From ScoutMedia, the free scout media repository

Description

This is the Video template. It uses the Html5media widget but helps to avoid adding the full URL of a locally uploaded file to the widget's "url" parameter by rather just specifying the name of the file via the "name" parameter. It is however still possible to use the "url" parameter for an externally hosted file.

Usage

Either the "name" or the "url" parameter must be specified. If nothing is being specified for the "width" (default = 425) and "height" (default = 355) parameters their default values will be used.

externally hosted file

{{Video
 |url=https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e6/Roundhay_Garden_Scene.ogv
 |width=425
 |height=355
}}

locally hosted file

{{Video
 |name=Roundhay_Garden_Scene.ogg
 |width=425
 |height=355
}}
