Hey all,
I built my portfolio that includes a lot of embedded videos using a code block method that is referencing mp4’s hosted on a G-Drive. This worked fine for about the last 3 months. Now suddenly the videos are appearing and dissapearing each time you reload the page, sometimes 2/5 load, sometimes 4/5. I havent made any updates to cause this. When I check the console for bugs its showing GET LINKTOVIDEOTHATSMISSING net::ERR_ABORTED 500 (Internal Server Error) Im not sure which server is having that internal error, wether its the G-drive or Webflow? When I check the links to the videos missing they load fine. So im thinking that Internal Server Error might be a Webflow Internal Server Error.
Anyone know how to diagnose this a bit further? Likely fix is re-host every thing not on G-Drive, but with alot of videos that feels like a big undertaking.

@Ryan_Knight - Google drive is not a video hosting service, rather a file sharing service. I would never recommend using it for this purpose for any of my clients. If you want predictable results that provides optimized delivery and loading you should really look into a video hosting service/platform.
Iv just tested it using Vimeo as the hosting platform and the video is still not showing. I am confused as I have made no changes to cause this, and as Vimeo is considered a good CDN im thinking its something else causing the bug.
