Uploading Videos to Aurora

Alternately, you can upload MP4 or OGG video files, and use using the 'Add Media' button to add it to a page.  Videos can be quite large and may not fit on Aurora. Consider where to store long videos or HD videos.

Be sure to remove the width and height attributes to get a responsive video size.Image Removed
