Hi Chris, we've been adding Plone addons via buildout.I haven't experienced plugins that should been avoided, however dependency issues very often occur and you have to pin versions
Regarding the second question, I would suggest that you upload the videos via ftp. You can check the manual -deprecated unfortunately- on http://en.flossmanuals.net/plumi/ch017_uploading-via-ftp/ First make sure plone ftp is running (./bin/supervisorctl status should output it running). Then open an ftp client, login to the server and start uploading. Videos uploaded via ftp get transcoded so html5 versions of videos are produced (mp4 as well).I have only uploaded single video files and not multiple videos at once, but would like to know once you test it. One last thing, videos uploaded via ftp initially get the private state, so you'll have to make them public.
