Video Embeds
I currently use Bunny.net for video storage and Presto player for my courses (LifterLMS).
This seems like it is going to be a lot better, more like Circle, but I don't see how to use my current video service.
Would I need to use custom html?

Related to this is can we have downloads that are only accessible via a download link? This would mean even if a bad actor got hold of the URL, they wouldn't be able to download as they would not have access (doesn't stop someone from sharing PDF/Zip but every little helps - plus this helps if a page accidentally gets indexed by google!)
We will have a video player in the next few months which will be connected with Bunny as well as with Cloudflare media.
The reason, it will be hard to use any external plugin because, the whole community interface is built with javascript to make super fast.
Shahjahan Jewel, ok thank you. The main reason I use this combination of tools is bunny is cheaper than most and presto allows protection of the video from being embedded/downloaded/played by people who are not logged in
If not Presto player, could you not simply use the Bunny Stream embed codes?
I am also hopeful that Bunny Offloader plugin would be compatible?
Dominic Osborne,presto gives you more control over the player UI which is why I bought it but I will see what it looks like without
Chris Garrett, Yah I realise that :) - just saying.... for a workaround at least...
Shahjahan Jewel Please could you make sure that your player supports Amazon S3 and Cloudfront? We're using S3 Media Vault for all our course and this is where we store all you training videos. Also, how will you make sure that it's not possible to download the videos? It's important to protect our IP, and that's why we use S3 media vault currently (which also protects PDFs by the way). One last thing, please make sure that your player supports subtitles, it's necessary for many users.
Embed videos from bunny.net work well in the courses section, I tested it. Also to prevent downloads (using Chrome Extensions and etc) it is better to use native bunny.net player (embedded videos) over third-party players like Presto and others, because of the free feature from bunny.net called Media Cage DRM that works only with their player. I use it with combination of white-listed domains and none of the Chrome extensions can detect/download the video stream. It's a huge security feature and I don't know other video streaming platforms that have it right now, especially for free.
Thought I'd post this in case anyone finds it helpful.
