I don¹t think I need to convert the video if it can be played on the site. A thumbnail would be nice though.
I don¹t understand the integration with WYISWIG and an editor. I¹m using NICEdit and it works fine for my filtered HTML fields, but what does it have to do with videos?
I tried the using the Media module¹s multimedia field, but after upload, nothing. No image to represent the video, no link to the video, no playing option for the video, no download option for the video.
I¹m not prejudiced toward one of the other. I just need something that works.
Can you see that I am doing something wrong?

Do you need the module to convert the video?
If not, the media module integrates well with WYSIWYG and an editor (i.e.
TinyMCE).
