In short:<\/strong> Video and audio files are too big to upload to your site, so host them on Kaltura, YouTube or Vimeo and embed them. For YouTube and Vimeo, paste the link on its own line. For Kaltura, paste its embed code. New to Kaltura? See the Kaltura guide in Moodle<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. On YouTube or Vimeo, click Share<\/strong> and copy the link.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

  3. The video player appears in the editor. Save your post.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Tip:<\/strong> Paste the plain link, not the embed code. If the link shows up as text, make sure nothing else is on that line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
