Amazon s3 storage video takes long time to load

Good day. Please i have a website i want to develope. Its a video viewing website where i will be sharing a local drama for my viewers. Each darama is of the average of 1:10:00 duration . My problem is , i tried hosting the videos on amazon, but now a video takes very long time to start streaming. around 20 min sometimes. I am confused and is not sutre what the problem is? Also i am using joomla for the video, the template i am using accept only .mp4 videos and its kind of difficult for me. I am not sure if there is a better cms for the site?. Would appreciate any recommendation.

S3 is great for just storing the video, but you want to use Amazon Cloudfront for streaming it since it is optimized for content delivery.
