I want to host my own videos and then be able to OEmbed them - Anyone know an off the shelf way of doing this?..

Thanks

Does it have to be oembed? Hosted videos can be played with just HTML5 without needing the request/response part of oembed since that's mostly for 3rd party sites:

<video width="640" height="480" controls>
<source src="path/myvideo.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="path/myvideo.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>

Just, make sure that you encode things right and with AAC/not MP3 etc.

Unless I'm missing something.

Hi, yes it needs to be OEmbed - It's so I can embed on a few social media sites that allow it - I am sick of giving YouTube all that advertising space - I need the money more than they do

Ah cool, that makes sense.

Well, if you like reading, this explains it all:

I'll see if there's a simpler way to get things going.

Thanks - I thought I had cracked it earlier, but it turned out I hadn't - Bugger...
