IIs there a simpler way to embed video in PDFs?

I was hoping Acrobat's new interface would make it easier to embed videos into PDFs, but so far it seems it does not. In my particular case I must attach hundreds of tiny videos to PDFs,  and as far as I can see, the latest interface requires a number of separate choices for each and every one just as the old version did. In my case these include Open in separate window, Specify the width and height of that window, and Specify the locatation of the poster file (each of which requires separate sub-steps). This gets tedious and very time-consuming when there are a great many to do. Despite my pleadings in this forum (all of which were 'upvoted'), it seems that all of these must still be specified separately for each video again and again with no way to establish them once and for all as defaults.

 

Does anyone know a way around this problem? (Apart from simply linking them instead of embedding them, which requires users to download and keep track of the folders where the linked media files reside).
