I've been using Imagekit to host images for all of my websites. Recently, when I started to create short videos for @antaresphdev, I started hosting videos there too. But it only allows 2 videos per month, and the paid tier they have is too expensive for me. So I tried Dailymotion. It's okay. But I have a few notes about it.
First off, although Dailymotion is able to allow me to tag my video as being in Tagalog, it doesn't allow me to upload Tagalog closed captions. Subtitles can only be uploaded in a very few select languages.
@teacherbuknoy@masto.aiSecondly, when I embed videos on a website via `iframe`, after my video plays, it auto plays another video from its algorithm. And I don't want people to think I am hosting morning talk show episodes on my website.
Ideally, I just want a cheap video hosting or CDN to be able to add `<video>` on my website. That way, I have full control on which languages the subtitles are provided in or the video player. Are there anything like this out there that doesn't break the bank? I'm mostly creating videos that are less than two minutes at about four times per month, and a ten-minute video from time to time. #webdevelopment #hosting #Help
@teacherbuknoy for personal or professional use?
For personal use I’m not convinced you necessarily need a CDN: just shove the thing on an S3 compatible bucket, put CloudFlare with a long cache period in front, and you are gonna be paying cents per gigabyte per month.
@michael I'll be checking this one out, thank you! It's going to be mostly for personal use.
@teacherbuknoy I use BunnyCDN for video file hosting. They have a dedicated video product with a player too, but I haven’t used that myself, just their CDN with my own player.
@jonah thank you! I'm going to check this out.
