 * Hi Jacob,
 * would it be feasible to link videos stored on remote servers?
    Background is 
   the limited space on the WP server, which forces me to downsize photos and use
   no videos at all. I do have sufficient space for larger content somewhere else
   and can make mp4 content available via http(s). At present, I publish videos 
   via EVP, keeping them at the ext. source, but to use WPPA would be a) much nicer
   b) limit the number of plugins c) provide a consistent way to administrate all
   stuff.
 * Rgds, Soeren.

 * Currently the cloudservice [Cloudinary](http://cloudinary.com/) is supported 
   for photos only.
 * In the mean time they now also support video’s.
    Would it be an option to implement
   Cloudinary support for videos also? This is in the line of the wppa architecture.

 * Hi Jacob,
 * just looked it up. Cloudinary would work.
    No hurry, though.
 * Thank you for the fast response, Soeren.
