Sharepoint online - displaying videos
In what type of library are the videos being stored? When stored in an "Asset library" (instead of a normal Document Library) accessing the videos from there, they'll open in an HTML5-based video player.

Alternatively you can create pages anywhere in your SharePoint site and embed video's there using a Media WebPart (classic pages) or Embed or Video Web Part (modern site pages)

paulpaschaHi Paul,
Is it possible to play the video with HTML5-based video player without opening a seperate explorer window, ideally embedded on the page?
This is exactly what I was after, thanks for the tip!
