What media types can I upload to Oeave?

Images (JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF), videos (MP4, WebM), and 3D models (GLB, USDZ, .ply Gaussian splats). The renderer handles compression and format conversion automatically where needed.

Can I reuse media across fibers?

Yes. The media library is shared across the project; the same asset can power multiple fibers and threads. Editing the asset propagates everywhere it is used.

Are there file size limits?

Practical defaults are 50 MB per video, 25 MB per 3D model, and 10 MB per image. Most premium DTC content fits well under these once compressed.

Media and Assets

Images, videos, and 3D models are the visual backbone of every Weave. Oeave provides tools for uploading media, browsing your asset library, and reusing assets across multiple fibers and thread components.

The Fibers tab — where you upload and manage media (desktop)

Uploading media

Wherever you see a media field — in a fiber form, a carousel slide, a card, or a background graphic — you'll find an upload area. You can:

Click to browse — opens your system file picker.
Drag and drop — drop image or video files directly onto the upload area.

Uploads are processed automatically. Images are optimized and served in multiple resolutions. Videos are transcoded for smooth playback across devices.

The asset gallery

When you click a media field that supports the gallery, a modal opens showing all media you've already uploaded to this project. Instead of re-uploading the same image for different components, you can pick from what's already there.

The gallery shows thumbnail previews organized by upload date. Click any asset to select it. This makes it easy to reuse hero images across carousel slides, card backgrounds, and background graphics.

Supported formats

Type	Formats
Images	JPEG, PNG, WebP, SVG
Videos	MP4, WebM
3D models	GLB

Image processing

When you upload an image, Oeave automatically:

Generates responsive srcSets at multiple resolutions for fast loading on any device.
Creates depth maps for the parallax and Ken Burns effects used in background graphics and the Image component.
Classifies images as "crop-safe" or not, so the renderer knows whether it can safely crop them in cover mode.

Tips for great media

Use high-resolution images. At least 1400px wide to look sharp on desktop.
Keep file sizes reasonable. The system compresses images, but starting under 5MB per image speeds up uploads.
Use consistent lighting. Product shots with similar lighting and backgrounds create a more cohesive Weave.
Match your video to the mode. Short clips (10–30 seconds) work best for video mode. Longer videos are fine in feed mode where buyers control playback.
