Hi,
I would like to add a video to my list of products. It's about 15-20 GB. I would like for people who pay to be able to watch. How should I do? Should I upload directly to Virtuemart? or to my site? Wouldn't that make my website to slow down?
Please advise.
Thanks

Jörgen

Do You really have space on your website for 15-20 GB ? I do not think so.
Uploading videos like this will not slow down the site. The only time the video is being watched is when they are going to watch the video.
Otherwise no impact other than space issues.

Thanks Jörgen. Otherwise I need to have a pro account on vimeo to put it on? Or something similar?
To set up a video to sell, is it similar to a book, or I have to do modifications to the code or something?
