It's not a bad workaround, as it can play up to 1080p encodes of anything you upload.

In the end, I've had to compensate by having the 'Play' button of each video only link to the preview video. It can return the data from a video, but there seems to be no way to funnel that data into a video container. The reason that doesn't work is due to the limitations of AJAX. I can initiate a download of that file, and that can be seen in the network requests, but there is no way to get it to stream into a video container. The add-on is built on top of the well-known 'video.js' project by applying a few custom plug-ins to enhance the user experience. Method 1 Using VLC Player 1 Open your web browser and visit. This project aims to bring a VLC-liked media playing experience using native HTML5 technology. You cannot play VOB files if they are encrypted. One similar to yours and the other involving getting the downloadUrl property of a file and parsing the html of the download prompt page to give me a direct link to the file. The 'Media Player' is a browser extension to play music and video files either locally or from online sources. The project itself works fine, but implementing video streaming did not go anywhere near as planned.

I spent quite a long time trying to figure this one out myself! I'm working on a project called DriveStream, that aims to use purely JavaScript and Apps Script to make an organised video library of a Drive account.
