How to get video_uri and poster_uri for Wix videos

I have a collection of Wix videos that I would like to play using the VideoPlayer api.
How do I figure out the video_uri and poster_uri that are referenced in the .src for the api?
The video library details page does not seem to present the information - see below.
The docs don’t seem to provide any guidance.
I really don’t want to be picking it off from the browser debugger…

Hello.

Currently, Wix Video is not integrated with Corvid.

Please reach out to Wix Customer Care . They will be of great help. This forum is only for code related issues and discussions.

Good luck!

If you read the Wix VideoPlayer API that you linked, you would have found your answer already.

src
Sets or gets the file location of the current video.

Description
Setting the src property changes the displayed video to the video found at the new src value.

Getting the src property returns the location of the current video file.

The video file is one of the following:

  • A video from the Media Manager. URL Format: wix:video://v1/<video_uri>/#posterUri=<poster_uri>&posterWidth=&posterHeight=

  • A video from a video sharing site. URL Format: https://www.site.com/video-path

  • An external video URL. URL Format: http(s)://site.com/video-file.mp4

If you have outside videos used then you would have already had the external url address.

If you have used videos from your Media Manager, then simply get the url address for the specific video or picture there.

Plus, as Sam has already stated above, Wix Video is an app and not part of Corvid, therefore you need to read its own support pages or contact Wix Support for more help with it.
