Where do videos pull from? #26

I had a fun time getting this to work last night and got to learn about some AWS services which was pretty cool. The control functions are working just fine but I am curious where the play video searches for video files. Is it looking locally for UPNP sources or at something else? Currently I use plex to stream all my videos and hoping it can be integrated but we'll see.

There are 2 places it pulls from: MovieDB for Trailers, and Youtube for videos.
