Hi All Customer,
In this topic tutorial we’ll help you use Google Drive link for Movies Video or Film in our Filmmaker WordPress theme (now is Circle and Formota).
Step 1: You need update load your video to Google Drive and can view it like this:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VCedaAAoZ3DbS6v9wLYhZz9yry99xITJ/view
To get the link to view video you can right click on the video and choose Copy link like this:
Please notice on the red highlight you will get ID of file:
1VCedaAAoZ3DbS6v9wLYhZz9yry99xITJ
Step 2: Replace your file id in this URL
https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1VCedaAAoZ3DbS6v9wLYhZz9yry99xITJ
Please replace this 1VCedaAAoZ3DbS6v9wLYhZz9yry99xITJ to your video file ID in the Step 1
Update: If you don’t want to do the step above manually you can read How to Create a Direct Download Link Using Google Drive Direct Link Generator.

HaruThemeHi,
After checking the video link by download we got access denied.
Maybe in the latest version Google Drive changed it.
That’s why the video can’t play.
Can you please check your video with this link:https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/1VCedaAAoZ3DbS6v9wLYhZz9yry99xITJ?alt=media&key=AIzaSyCE8IcOyzg4M0BhUZ-NZCqB1WNJLpEyoGMWe have just tried solution from this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32608289/is-there-a-way-to-get-links-to-a-google-drive-video-file-with-redirector-googlev
Hope it will works now.****
