    Label:
        text: 'Video Test'
        size_hint_y: None
        height: dp(30)
    Video:      
        id:player
        source: "http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/BigBuckBunny.mp4"
        allow_stretch: True
    ToggleButton:
        size_hint_y: None
        height: dp(48)
        on_state: player.state = {'normal': 'pause', 'down': 'play'} [self.state]
        text: {'normal': 'Play Video', 'down': 'Pause Video'} [self.state]
"""

linking to any video file it works but with flask url it does not

[Elliot Garbus]

What is the “flask” url returning?  How does it differ from what a video file url?  Sounds like flask is not providing the correct endpoint.
