    Hello
    Want to put up a private video on my own wp-domain-site. How do I do that without first upload it on youtube?

    Also a screenshot of the video would be nice, so the users can click on that.

    Is it a plugin or something to fix this??

    Upload your video to your server, probably have to do it via your FTP programme as it is likely a large file (?).
    So ensure you have enough storage space as part of your hosting plan.

    Although some people do stream large files to their sites from places such as DropBox or services such as LybSin.com. (Really depends on the file size of your video).

    I recommend the video be an MP4 (not Flash (FLV))

    Then use a video playback plugin such as Blubrry PowerPress – there are plenty to choose from.

    Create a page or post, enter the full URL for your video file in the video play back plugin field and see how you go.
