Google not indexing HD Videos

I have a Weebly pro plan website in which I have used the HD Video app on several pages to host and contain my own videos on my website. Each page has its own video with an explanation and the text of the audio. The video on each page resides just below the brief explanation and above the transcript. Google Search Console is not indexing my videos and they do not appear in the screenshot of each page. They are there and play in a browser or phone indicating that this is not a player issue, but an app issue. If Google can't "see" the videos, it can't index them. Has anyone also found this to be the case and, if so, have you found a simple solution or a better Weebly video app. I would rather host my own videos on my site instead of inserting YouTube versions with ads or redirects.

Hi Dsteinfeld,

 

Seems like your concern is more of Tech Support type issue rather than a Square Business question.  Google does have quite a bit of info here concerning Video Indexing - perhaps some of the details there may offer a clue.  For us hosting videos on YouTube and Vimeo has always worked well.  The good thing with Vimeo is they don't plaster your video with ads.
