Adding Video to Your Course

Inserting a video block
Open a lesson, click + to open the block picker and choose Video. The block has four tabs:
- URL / Embed: paste a YouTube, Vimeo or direct MP4 link.
- Upload Video: upload through your organization's streaming provider (Cloudflare Stream or Mux).
- File: upload an MP4, MOV or WebM file (up to 50 MB) that is stored and played as-is.
- Library: reuse a video already in your media library.
To change the video later, remove it with the ✕ on the player and choose again.
Uploading through a streaming provider
On the Upload Video tab, choose a file. A progress bar shows the upload, then the block shows "Processing video…" while the provider prepares it. The block checks for readiness automatically; you do not need to refresh.
Scormbusters does not resell video delivery. An Owner or Admin connects your organization's own Cloudflare Stream or Mux account in Settings → Video, and the provider bills you directly. On the hosted service, uploading through this tab needs a connected provider. On-premises Enterprise installs can fall back to the operator's own storage.
Tip: For large or frequently watched videos, prefer a streaming provider over the File tab: the provider handles transcoding and delivery.
Linking YouTube or Vimeo
On the URL / Embed tab, paste the video's URL. Scormbusters recognizes YouTube and Vimeo links and shows their player. Linked videos play from the hosting service, so they are subject to its availability and privacy settings; a video that is deleted or made private there will stop working in your lesson.
Captions
Click Add captions (VTT) on the video block and paste WebVTT captions — from your captioning tool, or ask your AI assistant to time a transcript into WebVTT and paste the result (see Connect your AI assistant). The captions are saved with the block, shown in the player for uploaded and direct-file videos, and shipped in every export. YouTube and Vimeo play in their own player, so use their captions.
