Which video object is .videoURL used for?

Hello, I’ve come across $w.Video on the API page, but which object is it? I’ve tried adding all the video objects shown in the video section under add, but none of them are $w.Video. The reason I want to use $w.Video is because it has .videoURL which I will need. You can find .videoURL here: https://www.wix.com/corvid/reference/$w.Video.html#videoUrl . Please help as soon as possible, as I am very desperately trying to find the object.

I can tell you that it works with videos that come with a lightbox template (and you can copy it from a lightbox template and paste it on a regular page).

(there’re probably more straightforward ways to add a video element that can get a new url via code, but I don’t have experience with Wix videos, Maybe others will be able to help).

Not all heroes wear capes! Thank you so so so so so much!

You’re welcome :slight_smile:

Sorry to bother you, but do you know why it’s saying a format error when i put the url? i followed the exact same thing from the api doccumentation

What’s the url?

I mean, it only supports Vimeo or Youtube.
Anyway, I had a look and I can see that instead of using this lightbox video, you can take a video player from the video section (on the left menu) and use it like this:

$w("#videoPlayer4").src = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfzE1n9W24E";

Same problem, still showing an error on the link

I don’t know. It worked for me. Maybe you should put here your actual code.

@J. D. $w.onReady(function () {
$w("#video1").videoUrl = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-DPZ6M6-7E"
})

@wuzup2007 yes

@jonatandor35 Doesn’t work :frowning:

@wuzup2007 see here: https://jonatandor35.wixsite.com/test/videourl
This page contains your code as is.

@jonatandor35 Maybe it only shows the error in the editor, let me see it as a live site

@jonatandor35 Yes! The editor was showing it as an error, but when i put it in a live site it was alright! Thank you so so so much for all the help you’ve given

@wuzup2007 you’re welcome.
