    Changed hosting plan and moving stored video outside of the website server.

    I’m messing with bunny.net video services… and I’m not totally pleased with the embedded player and encoding stuff. No worries, they offer flat file hosting.

    I would love to keep using your player.

    Dropped 3 files in my storage bin which are accessible at
    [video src="https://rqstore.b-cdn.net/pfizer-gate.mp4" /]
    [video src="https://rqstore.b-cdn.net/pfizer-gate-360.mp4" /]
    [video src="https://rqstore.b-cdn.net/pfizer-gate-480.mp4" /]
    …
    but your plugin fails to scan and detect lower resolutions. Can I input them all manually in the shortcode, one after another? Is is something you could fix easily?

    Also just tried to upload this test case to another CDN where public listing of the file is allowed and nope, they are still not detected.

    Finally made a workaround… It’s not like the player resolution selector itself… but it works and my videos are hosted in the flat file section at bunny.net while keeping my default 480 resolution for bandwidth saving reason. I also didn’t liked the fact that bunny controls the whole video encoding process with fixed easy to use options.

    I guess that the reason the plugin cannot detect remote aside files is because it’s based on the fact that it has access to the local filesystem?

    Sorry for the late reply. I think you’re running into a problem because Videopack only checks for exiting alternate video resolutions via http once and then remembers if there was no extra resolutions because checking via http takes a really long time. If you’re still interested I can come up with a way to rescan your videos.
