Member video uploads: what setup are you using?

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to find out how you handle videos that your members upload directly in their posts, without relying on a YouTube link or another platform.

What matters most to me is the member's experience: a setup that asks as little as possible from them (no extra account, no need to compress files themselves) and that stays reliable, especially from a phone.

If you've found a configuration that works well in this regard, or on the contrary pitfalls to avoid, I'd love to hear your feedback.

Thanks in advance!

I'm hoping for improvements on FluentPlayer side here. It should allow for feed uploads straight to eg Bunny Stream, and circumvent the ~100 mb upload limit that exists when currently uploading (ie to the WP server).

Bonus: the option to upload multiple videos in one post, and better support for vertical video.

I still haven't found the answer that would allow me to move forward. I’m looking for a compatible solution for video downloads by users (via their smartphones or PCs). I’m already using Cloudflare R2 (which is free), but it doesn't really work well for videosβ€”users are running into issues with both downloading and viewing them... hence my question! 😊
