Multimedia is becoming increasingly popular on websites, and DNN offers several options for handling it. For example, video files can be addressed by:
• Embedding the video on the page by using an iFrame placed in the standard content editor (file resides on your server) • Streaming the video on the page by using an iFrame placed in the standard content editor (file resides on another website) • Using the Gallery module to display one or more videos (file resides on your server)
In this example, the video is embedded into the page using the HTML Pro content module. The video file is located on our web server, meaning that we have complete control over it.
In this example, the video still looks like it’s an embedded part of the site, and was added to the page using the HTML Pro content module. However, this video is being streamed from YouTube and the file resides there, rather than on our server. We do not have any control over the file.
