Embedded Video on Power Pages

(3) Share

Posted on by nhidani

I have placed an mp4 file in the 'Web Files' and specified the partial URL in the design studio of Power Pages to embed the video.

However, the seek bar of the displayed video does not respond when I try to manipulate it.
What could be the cause?

Seek bar is working on another web page.

Do you mean another web page in your site or just some other web page?

Hi

While I understand what you are describing, I do not understand how you are building out full Uri for the file to play. And the issue itself is not very clear.

Are you unable to play the files? Find the files? or list the files:?

Thanks for the reply,

The full URI is composed as follows:
Site URL + Web file partial URL
Example: https://****.powerappsportals.com/testvideo.mp4

The video file plays, and entering the URI directly into the address bar results in the file being downloaded.
The file is stored in Web files Table of Dataverse within the same environment where Power Pages is set up.

Check the Webfiles table and check if the Content disposition column for the file says inline or attachment

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-pages/configure/web-files#web-file-attributes

Inline means play in browser. Attachment means configured for download

Thank you,

The web file was inline.

I tried changing it to "attachment" to see if it would make a difference, but it did not.

It is supposed to be inline
