Backend user settings

Each setting that is described in the Editors manual is configured as an exclude field.

That means each field has to be specifically allowed for the editor user or user group.

Switch to the Backend Users > Backend user groups module

Edit the user group and switch to the Access Rights tab._backend

To add and change tracks and time-based data, the group must be allowed to list and modify the File Metadata table.

To add and change poster images as well as change the video controls, the group must be allowed to list and modify the File Reference table.
