I have installed and configured the Brightcove module, but I cannot use it in the content types. I suppose I should be able to add a Brightcove video field on admin/structure/types/manage/[content-type]/fields or select Brightcove as the provider on the default video field, but the field/provider is not available.
I have installed and enabled the module and added the credentials on admin/config/media/brightcove_api_client. The status is "OK". I've clicked on "Sync all" on admin/reports/brightcove, and the videos are available. I can list them on admin/content/brightcove_video and I can list the playlists on admin/content/brightcove_playlist. I can configure the fields on admin/structure/brightcove_video/settings and admin/structure/brightcove_playlist/settings. I can connect to my account on my.brightcove.com and see the available default and custom players.
Now, when I select "Add field" on admin/structure/types/manage/[content-type]/fields, I can only select the default video field with Vimeo, YouTube and YouTube Playlist as allowed providers.
I don't know if there is something more I should do to enable the field/provider. I haven't found any other steps on the documentation or any issues about this. I've tried to navigate to all Brightcove related sections on the UI, but perhaps there is something I haven't seen. I'd be happy if someone can help me with this.

outi commentedThank you jan.mashat! I guessed (and hoped) it would be something obvious, but I couldn't find what. I thought I had read this documentation, too, but seemingly I had skipped this part, and so I wasn't looking into the "Other..." field type. Now it works fine!
