I’m developing a wp based membership site with many videos which are stored on amazon S3. I’ve setup Cloudfront following your guides. I’m using your Pro version and have setup my videos to play in a lightbox.
Everything works on my localhost.! Thank You for That!So, my first question is: If I have a dozen videos (both mp4 & webm versions) on a page – when do these videos start to load: When the page is initially loaded or only when a viewer clicks on one of the videos.
Second Question: Does the Default Expire Time Setting in the S3 setup area of FV Flowplayer apply to videos being served by Cloudfront or do I need to set that in the Cloudfront Distritution Settings on Amazon.
Thanks

Hello Steve,
the videos are loaded when clicked. There is an autoplay option as well. We are fixing the autobuffering option as it was causing issues with YouTube videos.
The CloudFront is always using expiration time of 15 minutes. It uses Ajax request to fetch the video URL so it works well with caching plugins.
Thanks,
Martin
