I am unable to uninstall 7 x-1.12 to replace it with 7.x-2.0-rc. I would disable the module in admin and select uninstall but, though the uninstall page stated it was successfully uninstalled, the module still remained. Loading 7.x-2-rc esulted in an error that videojs already exists. I have deleted all videojs contents and content type and cleared cache to no avail.

Could it be that the module files are installed at multiple locations, such as sites/all/modules/videojs and sites/all/YOURSITE/videojs.

I have it only on sites/all/modules. I have no other site directory. I installed using the admin install only.

My further playing around resulted in more frustrations. Checking the database schema, I noticed that the videojs fields were missing. The field list in admin/reports does not show the videojs field and the videojs field was non-existent when I tried to create content.

I then deleted the videojs module and replaced the library video-js with v 3.1 that successfuly removed 7.x.1.12 from the module listing. I then downloaded and installed 7.x-2.0-rc, with a message hat the module installed successfully. After enabling the module, I found that there was no videojs field when I tried to create a content type. Checking the database revealed no videojs fields created. Nothing happend.

It looks my effort worked after all. I missed a few steps creating the content type. I created a file field in Manage Fields and found the Video.js: HTML4 Video Player in Manage Display for the field. I feel much better.

Yes, I was going to reply with that solution as well. The Video.js module is just a display widget, you need to create the field yourself. The Video module allows you to create Video-specific fields to used with the Video.js widget, but "normal" File fields also work with the Video.js widget.

Thanks for the insight and your quick response to help when I first posted.
