Using a plugin like Post Type Switcher you can easily convert your existing Portfolio posts to work with Inspiro Portfolio posts.
When creating a new post, make sure to assign an existing or a new Category (Portfolios) to it and to set a Featured Image, which will be visible in the Portfolio block.
In the editor you can insert blocks with text, images, galleries, videos, etc.
You can attach a YouTube/Vimeo or self-hosted video to each Portfolio post in the Video Settings area:
In the Self Hosted File option you can upload a MP4 video or insert a direct link to a video file hosted somewhere else.
In YouTube/Vimeo option insert the public URL of the Video you want to display in the lightbox feature.
Examples:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvNw15W_EK8 - YouTube URL
