I am trying to use videogular2 and I have simply replaced the static video content link with a shareable link from Google drive that points to an MP4 video file.
<vg-player>
<video [vgMedia]="media" #media id="singleVideo" preload="auto" controls>
<source src="https://drive.google.com/open?id=xyz" type="video/mp4">
</video>
</vg-player>
Under Chrome browser the video player shows a resistance icon at the center and cannot play anything as it can be seen at the following screenshot:
Under Internet Explorer the video player shows the text "Invalid source" and the play button on the left as it can be seen on the next image:
But if I use the sample URL: http://static.videogular.com/assets/videos/videogular.mp4 it works very well.
I would appreciate any ideas/pointers related to what I am doing wrong.
I had the same problem and solve it using an address like the following:
https://drive.google.com/uc?id=ID_OF_YOUR_VIDEO&export=download&authuser=0
