Nimit,
Try the following steps :-
1) Log in the DMM
2) Click Video Portal
3) Click Programs -->Add a New Program -->Name the Program -->Select VOD / Live Event -->Save
4) Now Navigate to the Program --> Click the "+" sign to add video part --> Fill out the Video Description --> On the next screen click on the Folder icon --> Click Add Video Part --> Browse the Video file if it is a VOD (or else populate appropriate fields for Live Event) -->Save
5) The next screen (Video Portal » '' Videos » '>' Video Part » Part #1 Active Related Items ) should say " Part #1 has been added." -->Click on Folder Icon again --> Add New Related Item.
You will be prompted with 4 options as follows :-
- (Download ) Files for end users to download
- (Web Link in New Default Browser) URL opens in a standard browser
- (Web Link in New Default Browser)URL opens in a customized browser
- (Related Videos) Link to another video offering in the library
6) Select "Download" option --> Browse your Video file again -->Save
7) Click Deployment --> Schedule Immediately --> Create Deployment
8) Once the deployment completes --> Launch the instance of the Video Portal --> Play the Video
9) On the top right corner of the Video Screen you will notice "Video Info" --> Click on it --> Click Downloads tab --> You should see the video there.
Note : The all the Images, logos, preview videos, sound clips are stored on the location specified under Deployment Locations (Video Portal --> Setup -->Deployment Locations --> Support) Make sure the FTP Test passes for the FTP server and Root URL Path Exits (HTTP URL) - Try putting the URL in the Web browser and see if the directory listing shows all the content.
The process does look involved but it is not all that complex - Significant changes has been made to the Video Portal in the 5.2 and 5.2.1 release - It is now called Show and Share and is very user friendly. Hope this helps for now.
Regards,
Sagar Dhanrale
