About Us
Media.SMNV.org is a showcase site demonstrating the power of FieldtypeFileB2 – a ProcessWire module that lets you store and stream video and large files straight from Backblaze B2 cloud storage, with full Cloudflare integration for zero bandwidth costs.
G’day and welcome to media.smnv.org!
This little site exists for one simple reason: to show you just how brilliantly FieldtypeFileB2 works in the real world.
Built for creators who are sick of paying crazy money to host video (hello AWS S3 bills!), this custom ProcessWire module lets you:
- Upload videos up to 700 MB (and beyond) without the server having a meltdown
- Store everything cheaply on Backblaze B2 ($6/TB/month – about 5× cheaper than S3)
- Serve files through Cloudflare with zero egress fees (thanks, Bandwidth Alliance!)
- Use your own custom CDN domain so everything looks nice and branded
- Stream videos smoothly with Plyr, Video.js or whatever player you love
No more “max file size” headaches. No more $400 bandwidth surprises. Just fast, reliable, ridiculously affordable video hosting that works straight out of ProcessWire.
The entire site you’re looking at right now – every walking tour, every 4K clip – is served directly from Backblaze B2 via Cloudflare. No local copies, no expensive storage, no drama.
If you run a ProcessWire site and you’ve got video (or any big files), give FieldtypeFileB2 a crack. It’s open-source, MIT-licensed, and battle-tested on real projects.
Have a squiz at the videos, poke around the source code on GitHub, and feel free to get in touch if you want a hand setting it up on your own site.
Cheers, Maxim (the bloke who built this because he was tired of paying Amazon too much money)
