Moralis Netflix tutorial

Hi there. In this tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPjnjxmLS5k&t=1211s) the lecturer creates a Netflix copy, and the videos are being shown from IPFS. (Movie: “https://ipfs.moralis.io:2053/ipfs/QmNtxfy9Mk8qLsdGnraHGk5XDim8ayR93krM24ETJEd2bG/media/0”)

I tried to put a youtube link, instead of IPFS, it doesn’t work. Any ideas? Is it possible to play youtube videos? Or I need to upload the video ONLY into IPFS and then can play them?

I think that it depends on the player on what it can play. It may be able to play videos directly from a link. It may work also if you upload a video on another static hosting instead of IPFS.

YouTube has its own rendering in case that you pasted the link to a YouTube video as you would paste it for someone else to see it and that one will open directly in YouTube.

thank u very much! got it
