</code></pre>
<p>The values set here will be the default values for all videos, unless you specify differently in the shortcode. Uncheck “Use CDN hosted version?” if you want to use a self-hosted copy of Video.js instead of the CDN hosted version. <em>Using the CDN hosted version is preferable in most situations.</em></p>
<p>If you are using a responsive WordPress theme, you may want to check the <em>Responsive Video</em> checkbox.</p>
<p>Uncheck the <em>Use the [video] shortcode?</em> option <strong>only</strong> if you are using WordPress 3.6+ and wish to use the [video] tag for MediaElement.js. You will still be able to use the [videojs] tag to embed videos using Video.js.</p>
