You need to replace the sample URL with the actual URL of the video file. Video Shortcode Options The following options are supported in the shortcode. WebM You can specify a WebM video file in addition to the source MP4 video file. This parameter is optional. [videojs_video url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" webm="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.webm"] Ogv You can specify a Ogv video file in addition to the source MP4 & WebM video files. This parameter is optional. [videojs_video url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" webm="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.webm" ogv="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.ogv"] Width Defines the width of the video file (Height is automatically calculated). This option is not required unless you want to limit the maximum width of the video. [videojs_video url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" width="480"] Preload Specifies if and how the video should be loaded when the page loads. Defaults to “auto” (the video should be loaded entirely when the page loads).

Defaults to “true”. In order to hide controls set this parameter to “false”.

[videojs_video url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" loop="true"] Muted Specifies that the audio output of the video should be muted.
