Q: Hi there!
The videoplayer that I currently use have a lot of options that I am really happy with, such as watermark/logo, into/outro added to videos etc. Having now tested the Swarmify player it seems rather limited (although the watermark option is available) in this particular regard. I therefore have some questions I would be very grateful if you could take the time to answer :)
1. Do you have a roadmap somewhere public?
2. Do you have any intentions of adding more features to the player itself (such as intro and outro-content)?
3. Is it possible to use your hosting but a different player?
Thank you and have a great day!

May 15, 2024A: Hi MT,
Thanks for the question.
We don't have a public roadmap as we have been collecting lots of information and feedback from Sumo'ings and will start working on the priorities based on demand for various features.
Our plan is to make player improvements over the course of times. We've made several in the recent past like ability to change button shapes, playback speed selector, etc.
As for using 3rd party player with Swarmify, we've optimized the SmartVideo player to load 12x faster than many bloated off-the-shelf options out there. 64 millisecond load times to be exact. This makes our player a key, tightly integrated component, and part of our overall solution. As a result, SmartVideo is not compatible with external players.
