How to upload

  1. Open Upload Video from the top menu if your account has uploader access.
  2. Drag and drop a file, paste a file when the browser supports it, or browse from disk.
  3. Fill in the metadata fields before starting the upload.
  4. Click Upload, Process, And Publish and watch the upload and HLS progress areas.

What happens after upload

  • The server creates a processing queue entry for the video.
  • Processing may happen locally or on a remote worker such as Pandora, depending on availability.
  • If a remote run fails or stalls, the system can fall back to local processing automatically.
