2. Locate the video you want to delete.

I was facing the same issue, it's because the added video doesn't reliably give the dots button on the side to modify it. But I stumbled into a very weird and hacky way to be able to delete or modify them, here's how.

The above video on the LMS is added as a google drive link.

Steps to Reproduce

• Make sure there's something before or after the video in the content window, just add a line of text or anything.
• Then, below the video, you click enter a bunch of times, like some 5-8 times to create enough lines and part of the video goes out of view.
• Then, you kind of slide the cursor across the added lines in the way shown and scroll up while doing so and suddenly you'll be able to get the same dots option on the side of the video, click on that and delete.
• I have no idea what's the reason this happens, but it's definitely a pretty big bug that I hope can be resolved, and made to work just as easily as getting the dots on the video's side and click delete twice instead of doing all the above shenanigans haha.

You can remove by your keyboard shift arrow up and arrow down to select and unselect ,after selecting Video press Backspace.

I hope this will help you.
