I have created a website using asp.net/vb.net which allows users to upload videos. It all works great but playback on the videos is slow and jumpy.. This will probably be worse when I officially launch the site to the public. I use HTML5 Video Tag to play the videos.
What is my best solution for speeding things up? The videos are currently uploaded by the user and stored in /catalog/videos folder in my 1&1ionos webspace.
I don't understand much about all this but I have read a little about cloudflare and CDN's. Should I be setting up a subdomain and pointing that to the video folder? Should I leave the video files where they are and then point to them from the VB code at the new subdomain? Or do I need to adjust my code to upload them to the subdomain and then get a CDN involved with that?
I'm not sure how many visitors I'll get yet so i want to account for there being 10, 100 or 1000 visitors per day watching videos.
I appreciate any advice at all.
