Brightcove Video Cloud lets publishers deliver fast, TV-like experiences out-of-the-box and insert ads to drive revenue. By using CSS and JavaScript, you can create customized video experiences for your audiences. The Brightcove plugin lets you access videos managed through Brightcove and modify content—such as adding close-captioning or changing a headline—before publishing. Brightcove videos are also indexed and searchable through the CMS. Other user benefits include a seek bar that lets viewers quickly and easily jump to a specific point in the video in seconds; a clear video description bar; and easy-to-use volume and mute controls.
Brightcove and Brightspot: How it works
The Brightcove plugin provides access to videos that you manage with the Brightcove online video provider. You can modify content that originated in Brightcove, such as headline, and add new content to those video items. The plugin requires a Brightcove Video Cloud account.
