Hello,
We are trying to add videos to KB article, avi files do not play once uploaded via either URL or Attachment (they upload but just appear as a blank grey box).
.mov and .mp4 work without issue.
avi is added as a supported file type in the system property, attribute 'HTML Sanitizer' is set to false for article body.
What could be the issue?
Regards,
Viji

Hello @vijir
Please refer to the San Diego & Utah documentation here.
The 2 versions that the platform officially supports are:
- MPEG-4 video .mp4
- WebM Video .webm
Even if you add the file format as supported type, the platform layer codes might not accept it, and therefore rendering a blank space.
