 * Is there a way to add a video field? I see images and files, but not video specifically.

 * If you only need the link, you can use website type or a textbox and then use
   the filter I provide ‘bxcft_show_field_value’ to show a youtube or vimeo player
   if you need.

 * I need an actual video uploaded to the site. Each user gets to upload one video
   and I need the video thumbnail returned along with the other info when doing 
   a search with the BP Profile Search plugin. The plugin author said “BP Profile
   Search uses the standard Members Directory page to display its search results.
   So what you need is a way to add the video thumbnail to the standard Members 
   Directory page, then BP Profile Search will automatically use it.” So that’s 
   what I am trying to find a way to do. Right now I am using rtMedia for the videos,
   but I am not tied to that.

 * Sorry, I’ve not created a field for videos, so for now, it is not possible with
   my plugin. Maybe in the future, I don’t know.
