If you've followed the guide for setting up the content type for Brightcove Media integration, you can use the Media module to browse and upload Brightcove videos.
Some notes:
- Media Gallery is supported, so you can use Brightcove videos in your galleries, too.
- After clicking Select media, you'll see an Upload tab: this is the regular upload, so it won't upload anything to Brigthcove (obviously).
- The Web tab can be good if you have an embed code for a video that you would like to use. Just copy and paste the embed code into the box, Submit and the video is inserted.
- The Brightcove videos tab is where you're able to both upload and browse Brightcove videos. Please note that loading the videos can be a bit slow (it depends on the amount of videos you have). You can use filtering here, too.
Uploading a video is quite simple - in the Upload video section browse for your video, fill in the needed information and use Upload and attach. Wait until the video is uploaded - the popup will disappear after the upload is complete. - It's possible to use different players with Media integration, much like as with fields. Different players can be used on a per file view mode basis. You can read about setting this up on the Using different players handbook page.
