The Insert Media dialog supports embedding media via the HTML5 <video> and <audio> tags. This is achieved through the Video and Audio tabs on the dialog respectively.
Media content that's inserted into EditLive! must be first uploaded to a web server. Files local to the user's machine cannot be used as either video or audio assets in the content.
