Create a custom provider

Lets assume the url is https://video.example.org and the name is Example Video Portal.

Provider name: Example Video Portal (must be the same as the name of your AVideo portal!)

Provider URL: https://video.example.org

Endpoint schemes:

https://video.example.org/channel/*/videoEmbed/*/*
https://video.example.org/channel/*/videoEmbed/*
https://video.example.org/videoEmbed/*/*
https://video.example.org/videoEmbed/*
https://video.example.org/vEmbed/*/*
https://video.example.org/vEmbed/*

Endpoint URL: https://video.example.org/oembed/

To generate a media source you have to create a "Provider Bucket". Just add a new bucket, choose your name and select your new created provider (Example Video Portal).

Create Media Entity

Now you can create a new media entity and choose your created bucket as media source.
