Hi All, I am very new to open edx platfrom.Default platform allows youtube video integration only.i want to upload videos to s3 like digital ocean spaces or amazon s3.what will be the process to customize the default feature.Any help would be appreciated.
Hi @injamul_haque,
You can definitely use videos hosted on an S3-compatible service. If you don’t mind uploading them directly to S3/Spaces/etc yourself, then you can follow the documentation steps on how to use them in a course. The current documentation is here: Guide to Course Video and here: Manage Video Components - but though these are up to date, they don’t really have many useful details related to S3. The old documentation here has a lot more details about using S3-hosted video: 6.2. Working with Video Components — Building and Running an Open edX Course - Cypress Release documentation
There is also a tool in Studio for uploading videos to S3, but I’m not sure what’s required to get it working. It might require setting up the “Video Abstraction Layer”; but maybe it just requires configuring your S3 credentials. Hopefully someone else can explain.
