Video sharing from a link

Is there a function to share videos from links? Like say a YouTube video or
similar on the whiteboard?

At the moment I'm not sure such integration is possible :(

@Denis, @Jeffry,

Hello,
youtube-dl works well on Linux to download YT videos to a local directory.
Check the licence before downloading anything from YT. The YouTube Standard
licence does not allow third-party distribution. Look for videos with a
Creative Commons licence.

I only ask because the business I support this is one of the basin
questions asked by almost all of our trainers. Thank you for the feedback

OM has (maybe unofficial) requirement: all users should watch the same
piece of video
this requirement is harder to implement for youtube
( + now they add more aggressive advertisements)

No. But you can share a link via the chat box. If I require a YouTube video, I usually use an online video converter, download the video and then reupload it to a folder on OM and then drag and drop etc.
