How to manage a video site in Wordpress?

    I have a .com site installed with wordpress scripts and I am looking to maintain that site as video blogging site like youtube. But when I try to upload video via Add video option, it is just coming as the link and not as the video player. Could you please help me in order to resolve this?

    Thanks in advance

    any plugin may allow you to host self hosted video with a player.

    try to add your youtube video code in the HTML code in HTML editor not in visual editor. Every Thing will be fine.

    if you need to create a tube like site - so yeah just search for some themes optimized for that. But if you want to make a real tube - you'll need ffmpeg, imagemagick and whole bunch of other stuff along with dedicated server (or at least good vps) and wordpress is not for it
