I tried updating source in the jsfiddle example to a youtube video and vimeo video link, but I get the error that Video cannot be played in this browser

Could you provide the exact link please?

Do you mean you literally want to do:

<source src="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_GEISRSPrY" />

If so then this will never work. This player is just a HTML5 video wrapper and takes a supported video source. There is no magic.
