Wix Video: Adding Videos to Your Video Library
The Wix Video Library is where you manage all the videos you've added to your site. You can upload new videos, delete existing videos, edit video information, and more.
Use your video library to organize and structure your video content. Group similar content together and set up channels to make it easier for viewers to find the content they want.
As well as displaying your own videos on your site, you can embed videos from YouTube, Vimeo and Facebook.
Before you begin:
