Video player FAQ

Can I host the player on my own domain?

Yes, you can have your video, played on our player, available on your own domain. But depending on your needs and the option you have chosen for the player, you might need separate subdomains for the video, live, embed and collector services.

Is it possible to play ads?

Yes, you can insert in-stream ads, at the beginning, during or at the end of the video. Including ads in your videos and stream is easy, you can do it via the api.video player with an additional URL fragment or the player's SDK.

Can I remove the "Download" link on the player?

It is possible indeed. You can change the mp4 support with an API request. You want to use the "Update a video" endpoint, and in your request, you would set the mp4Support parameter to be false. Preventing your video from being downloaded.

Which accessibility features are available?
