Storage Settings ​

The Storage section is where you connect external video and audio hosting providers to FluentPlayer Pro. Once connected, you can choose these providers as video or audio sources when adding or editing media items.

• Others: Filters the view to show custom routing options like Webhooks.

Each integration card displays a brief description, a status badge (Enabled or Disabled), and a Configure button to manage your connection settings.
