ank 1 Posted October 19, 2017 @maxf5 and @adrian thank you FieldtypeVideo seems the easiest way, but i want to "autoplay" and "loop" the movie, so i think the "file" field option is the most suitable. Ank Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ank The video fieldtype can do autoplay and loop - take a look at the Mediaelement API (https://github.com/mediaelement/mediaelement/blob/master/docs/api.md). You can also completely replace the video rendering code in the settings of the module with another player if you'd prefer. Not to say that a normal files field isn't fine, the Video fieldtype just makes it easier to manage videos in the backed because it creates images, shows the length of videos, and a few other things. Really depends on your needs as to what will be best. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
