M4V Video in Gallery

15 Jun 2016, 01:06

I have a M4V video that I would like to include in the middle of a gallery however it is showing up at the top of the gallery. I am not sure how to place it midway through the gallery. The gallery is sorted by file name... and the m4v is named in a way that it should show up mid way down. Any ideas on how to do this?

Here is a link the the gallery in question.

I don't know what you expected, but videos are not part of the page's image collection, thus it will not sort itself into the same layout. Several reasons for this: First of all, the video can't just embed itself instead of an image thumbnail ... There is obviously a big difference between an image thumbnail and a video. Also, don't you think the video would be too small in that layout? Furthermore, we can't create a thumbnail from a video, and a video wouldn't be able to embed in all the gallery layouts anyway.

There is room for improvements, but for now, if you are mixing videos and images on the same page, the video will simply display first.
