    Hello,
    I have a video sharing site. Activated this plugin and when click on any video to play always must wait and wait (in server stat uploading 4MB/s to Shift8 servers), when uploaded then starting play. I have many videos there (1000?), how prevent this?

    Hello,

    The CDN is not really designed for large video formats, especially for the free account. How big are these videos on average?

    The way the CDN works is it will fetch the video file once and then store it in ram for subsequent fetches. It also depends on how fast your web host network speed is as it is dependent on that. Additionally your own network connection and your geographic location to the CDN endpoint plays a factor.

    Let me know how big these files are , if they are really large, it might be more efficient to use a commercial or enterprise CDN like AWS cloudfront for that sort of thing.
