How to add a video to an HTML code?

Question

I have tried a lot and the videos don't work, I added videos from YouTube and Chrome and it doesn't work This is the code I tried.
<video controls>
<source src="http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/ElephantsDream.mp4"
type="video/mp4">
Video Not Supported
</video>

And yes I heard I can use <iframe> but I haven't reached there yet and I just would like to learn this one first.

Answer 1

did you try:

<video width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>

it in this way?

Answer 2

Thank you so much but I'm new so no I didn't try it sorry.

Answer 3

Why not trying an embedded link, like you would for say a youtube video? but instead of setting it to "https://example.com", you set it to "file://internal storage/some folder/example.mp4"?

Answer 4

Thank you also

Answer 5

I think it's better to download any video you wish to use in your website.
