Add a video which is NOT hosted on youtube or vimeo

Dear all,

I want to add videos below my products description but unfortunately they are neither on youtube nor on vimeo.

The videos are hosted on dacast/ vzaar.

https://iframe.dacast.com/vod/3993bb73637a0aac983ce7c46b6fbf84/9ef4c0d3-792e-172b-8c82-asfasfasf

or:

https://view.vzaar.com/12331956/player

 

(the part after vod/ and com/ are edited, you wont see a video there).

 

I guess I need to use the edit code function to implement them somehow or? Could someone assist me? Again, I would prefer them below the product description, left aligned. Thank you

HI @DaveD 
You can try to add this code into the product description, where you want to show the video.
<script src="https://player.dacast.com/js/player.js?contentId=23201956" id="23201956" width="800" height="500" class="dacast-video"></script>

@ExpertRookie - thank you for the advise. somehow it didnt work with the script src but you encouraged me to look more into this 😁 I could resolve it with below command:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://view.vzaar.com/11111111/player" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Hey Expert 🙂

There is meanwhile another issue.

To implement the videos by a link works.

But even if all video links refer to the same size, I face it here and there that the video is 50% smaller as it supposed to be.

My setup is:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://view.vzaar.com/1232132/player" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe>

Even if I use fot w and h "100%" or double the numbers to 1120 and 630 (or 200%), it wont change the size of the video on the page. For me it rather looks like a bug.. idk...

any idea?
