    • (wait at least 10 mins for trans-coding to complete – its create multiple versions 480, 720 etc, FYI a full movie could take over an hour. To save time, upload your videos a day or two in advance of adding it into a post or page
  • Presto creates two streaming libraries at Bunny.net.
    • Public (not logged in users)
      However, you would use the memberships levels to control access to the video content
    • Private (logged in users) it’s basic protection.
      But again you would use the membership levels to control access to the Blocks (text and the Media files.)
  • Analytics directly on the website
  • Global player (customisable style)
    • this default style is applied all presto videos,
  • Page or Post Block allow you to add a new video or display an existing video or upload new one.
    • Note : the video players style can be modified in the Block editor. These customisations are unique to that video.
      It does not change the default (global) player style.
