Problems with the player at WikiFarm

Hello!

I have wiki farm with language subdomains and subdomain with keeping all files.

  • en.mywiki.org - My English wiki
  • de.mywiki.org - German one
  • files.mywiki.org - Keep all images, video etc.

I have following settings at LocalSettings.php for storing files:

# One storage and uploads
$wgUseSharedUploads             = true;
$wgHashedSharedUploadDirectory  = true;
$wgUploadNavigationUrl   = 'https://files.wikijournal.org/wiki/Special:Upload';
$wgUploadPath            = '/w-wiki/images';
$wgSharedUploadPath      = $wgUploadPath;
$wgUploadDirectory       = "/var/www/admin/www/w/images";
$wgSharedUploadDirectory = $wgUploadDirectory;

# Shared files
$wgFetchCommonsDescriptions = true;
$wgSharedUploadDBname = 'mywiki_org';
$wgSharedUploadDBprefix = 'files__'; # Table name prefix
$wgRepositoryBaseUrl = "https://files.mywiki.org/wiki/File:";

When installed the extension and uploaded my video, I can view the video with the player on the page of uploaded file https://files.mywiki.org/wiki/File:MyVideo.mp4.

But when I insert the file to the page at en.mywiki.org I see the warning "Error missing media source". Can you please help to setup the extension so that I can use player at my all wiki farm subdomains.

It is/was incompatible with ForeignDBRepo phab:T63986 until MediaWiki 1.41.

Does it mean that the issue is resolved at MW 1.41 and all be fixed as soon as I upgrade? Now I use MW 1.40

it's also not super well tested with mp4 honestly.

Well, I'll try to use other format then as well
