Thanks, now I get this error if I upload via paper clip
...and this error if I upload mp4 to server and paste url into 'insert media' tab
If I paste the url as a link it works. ie you can click on the link and the mp4 video opens in a new tab but that is not what I want?, I want it to embed.
Press enter after link, both Rich and Advanced editor should embed
I get the above status code 500 error if I press enter.
I get that here aswell
YouTube ok
Image ok
Mp4 returns 500 and is removed
Hmm

That thread says that allowing video uploads to the server as opposed to youtube for example is security risk and resource intensive so isn't allowed, possibly is a security risk for allowing users to upload but not for admins? As for resources, that is for the admin again to decide if he has enough storage and/or bandwidth to stream a video, is it not?
I find that youtube videos have a habit of getting removed or deleted after a while so I prefer to host it on the server where possible.
