Please support the native embedding function of videos for popular videosharing sites like youtube and similar and the major online drives like googledrive , onedrive, dropbox.

And also for online mp4 links, right now it downloads them but it could be easily embedded with a video embedding instead and stream. Or in this case maybe give the user an option choose if downloading or embedding is preferred.

For any site providing an online player like youtube just open the page in the internal OpenBoard browser, click on the following icon in the toolbar: grafik and create an application for that.

This places a web widget on the board containing the youtube player. The same should work with nearly any other page.
