I am trying to use flet to play a local MP4 file.
When I read the reference, I found that their shown code example is using only "http" resources:
sample_media = [
ft.VideoMedia("https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/28951144/229373720-14d69157-1a56-4a78-a2f4-d7a134d7c3e9.mp4"),
ft.VideoMedia("https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/28951144/229373718-86ce5e1d-d195-45d5-baa6-ef94041d0b90.mp4")
]
Question:
Can I use a local resource (file) for MP4 playback using flet, and how?
There was no example of specifying a local video. Does that mean it can't be done with flet?
Whay I've tried:
I changed the URL from http to ./video/movie.mp4, but it did not work.
