The URL Media Player component

Display a video or insert audio content from a URL (YouTube, Facebook, Soundcloud, Vimeo, Twitch...) using the URL Media Player component.

Like any multimedia component, you can create markers and add interactions to the multimedia content, choose to show or hide the player controls.

💡 Since these video and audio contents are online, the user will need an Internet connection to view them on their interface.

⚠️ Dailymotion is currently not supported by the component: to display a Dailymotion video, please use the Web component and embed the video's URL code.

Insert a video / audio from a URL

  • Click on the Components icon and add the Media Player URL.

  • In the properties, insert the URL of the video or audio. This is the URL of the page on which this media is located.
