How to use any Third-party Video Platform as a Video Hosting Provider (BunnyCDN, etc.)

In OnlineCourseHost.com, we offer you the option to uploading videos on our platform. But if you prefer to host the videos in YouTube, Vimeo or anywhere else, we support that too.

This tutorial teaches you how to host your videos on any third-party platform other than YouTube or Vimeo.

The only requirement is that the video platform needs to support an HTML embedded video player.

So this won't work with something like Google Drive, etc. it needs to be a video hosting platform with video embedding capabilities.

To use third-party video platforms, you need to copy the code of the videos and paste them in your video lesson.

In this document, we will be looking into how to get the video embed code for Loom, Vimeo, and YouTube.
