[Enhancement]: URL streaming the video should be loops.video and not https://loopsusercontent.com/videos/7916..mp4

[joergi]

Description

I wouldn't call it really a bug, that's why I opened it as an enhancement:

If you are on a computer, where something like Zscaler or similar is installed (a Zero Trust architecture for enterprise companies) you can't watch videos provided from loops.video, because they are not delivered by loops.video but from loopsusercontent.com

That's the code for the loops.video play:

<video data-v-8ef34a8a="" ..... src="https://loopsusercontent.com/videos/791....34yw.720p.mp4">
<source data-v-8ef34a8a="" src="https://loopsusercontent.com/videos/791....34yw.720p.mp4" type="video/mp4"></video>

That's then how a single video looks like:

this is how the overview page looks like:

If you look how youtube is deliviering the content, it uses the their own youtube.com domain to deliver the stream

<video tabindex="-1" ....  src="blob:https://www.youtube.com/26140c73-5b85-4ca1-a7ef-32c756cdf7bb"></video>

Maybe it's a chance to get loopsusercontent being accepted by the big player, but as this should work for all the Loops servers, the S3 url must delivered over the server URL.

Use-case

I don't say this is a "MUST HAVE" but if you want that everyone can watch the videos, it would help that the stream is delivered from the same URL as the website.
