Wild Apricot allows you to embed video clips from sites like YouTube, Vimeo, Veoh, or Flickr on your Wild Apricot pages. You can also embed videos stored on your Wild Apricot site. WildApricot Embedded Videos: Visitors to your site may need to download and install browser-specific plugins to view your videos. Note/Comments/RemarksHostGator tech suport recommended not upgrading. " VPS and Dedicated servers would definitely allow you to stream from the server itself. However as you are working with a non-profit the cheapest option would be to use a streaming service." An upgraded account, besides cost, would entail technical issues that could easily exceed my capabilities.   Note/Comments/RemarksUnlimited HD format videos with PLUS account. Uploads are converted to Vimeo format. Plus users also have the option of allowing downloads of their original uploaded file. Codec: H.264

A codec is the format in which your video will be encoded. Vimeo accepts most major video codecs, but for best results we recommend using H.264. If you’re uploading High Definition (HD) video, choose the High Profile H.264 setting instead of Main Profile.
