An administrator must first add the appropriate file formats in the Config manager before users can upload these files.
BlueSpice integrates the MediaWiki extension EmbedVideo_(fork) to embed video files from external video services such as YouTube or Vimeo. EmbedVideo supports more than 20 video services. In addition, you can also embed videos that have been uploaded to the wiki itself.
Embedding external videos
By default, placeholders are displayed for embedded videos until users provide their consent to load the video from the video service. This consent requirement can be disabled via server configuration.

Content droplet
Videos hosted on supported external services can be added as a Content Droplet.
After choosing the "Video" Content Droplet, you can provide the video name, for example of a YouTube video:

Source-editing mode
Syntax
Individual videos are embedded with the #ev tag:
{{#ev:service|id|dimensions|alignment|description|container|urlargs|autoresize|valignment}}
Placeholders for unused arguments between two arguments have to remain empty and cannot be removed::
{{#ev:service|id|||description}}
The shortest option to embed a video is by specifying the service name and the video ID:
{{#ev:youtube|MLIE2642neg}}
Example with video description (- you can include a line break with the <br /> tag):
{{#ev:youtube|MLIE2642neg|||ISS - Life on the space station <br/> 1:04:27}}
Attributes for parser tag #ev
| attribute | required | default | description |
|---|---|---|---|
service="(see supported services below)"
|
yes | The video service that is called when the player is created. | |
id="[id|url]"
|
yes | The video ID or full URL of the external video. | |
dimensions="[width|widthxheight|xwidth]"
|
no | 640 | Dimensions in pixelsto size the container for the player. The default format is width x height. It is possible to omit one of the dimensions. The x always has to be included before the height.
Examples: Some video services such as Gfycat don't have a standard height. Therefore, the height setting should be included for each video. With |
alignment="[left|center|right|inline]"
|
no | none | The video can be placed left, center, right, or inline. Inline allows to add multiple videos in one row. In mobile view, the videos are automatically aligned vertically. |
description="[wiki text]"
|
no | none | Shows a description below the player container. |
container="[frame]"
|
no | none | Determines the container type for the player.
|
urlargs="modestbranding=1&version=3"
|
no | none | Allows adding additional URL-arguments to the embedded url. This is useful for settings that are only offered by an individual video service. |
autoresize="false"
|
no | true | Automatically adjusts the video size if the video would extend beyond the size of the container. |
valignment="[top|middle|bottom|baseline]"
|
no | none | Aligns the vertical placement of the video either to the top, middle, bottom, or baseline of the parent element. Using this parameter forces the alignment parameter to be inline. |
width

Only considered if consent is required to load the video($wgEmbedVideoRequireConsent=true). |
Embedding local videos
Media dialog
Like images, videos can be inserted directly on a page via the media dialog. The wiki recognizes the file extension and automatically generates the necessary HTML player.
BlueSpicePlayer and EmbedVideo
Videos that have been uploaded to the Wiki can also be embedded in source editing mode. This can also be done using the extension BlueSpicePlayer. BlueSpicePlayer has no functions to embed external videos, however.
The two extensions have the following differences when embedding local video files:
| Syntax/Parameter | EmbedVideo | BlueSpicePlayer |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | corresponds to the syntax of embedding image files:
|
<bs:showtime>samplename.mp4</bs:showtime>
|
| Size | Only the width can be defined. The video fills the entire width of the player container: [[File:Manual:300px-video-size-showtime-600.PNG]]
|
Width and height can be defined separately. If the width of the video is smaller than the video container, the canvas is filled in black.
<bs:showtime width="600">...
|
| Loop | - |
<bs:showtime repeat="yes"</code>
|
| Autostart | - | <bs:showtime autostart="yes"</code>
|
| Star/End | [[File:samplename.mp4|start=2|end=6]]
Time can be added as: ss, mm:ss, hh:mm:ss |
- |
| HTML-Output | embedded as <video> tag | embedded through nested <div> tags |
| Adjusts to mobile display | yes | no |
| Player controls | ||
| play button | yes | yes |
| progress bar | yes | yes |
| volume adjustment | yes | yes |
| fullscreen mode | yes | yes |
| picture-in-picture | yes | yes |
| download | yes | no |
| speed adjustment | no | yes |
Supported video services
The following video services are supported. In parentheses, you find the service names that are used with the tag #ev:
Archive.org Videos (archiveorg), Bilibili (bilibli), KakaoTV (kakaotv), NaverTIV (navertv), Niconico (niconico), SoundCloud (soundcloud), Spotify Album (spotifyalbum), Spotify Artist (spotifyartist), Spotify Song (spotifytrack), Twitch (twitch), Vimeo (vimeo), YouTube (youtube), YouTube Playlist (youtubeplaylist), YouTube Video List (youtubevideolist).
