Alternative Video Player for Brizy

Is there a way to use another video player like Presto Player with Brizy?
I'd like to show videos from our youtube channel on our site. And I want the controls to be available (play/pause and the time bar) but not the other items of the youtube menu so the users don't leave my site.
Any ideas how to solve that?

  Hi Andreas,  

  Thank you for contacting us.

  Yes, you can use another video player like Presto Player with Brizy or any video player plugin that supports embedding via shortcode. Once you have the plugin installed, you can add its shortcode to a Brizy Embed element, allowing you to display your YouTube videos with customized controls.  

  

  If you have any further questions, please let us know.

  Best regards,  
  Ariel H.

  Thanks so far Ariel but I still don't understand how to add a video via presto player. I added the embed element and the following code: "[presto_player src="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOc955jMlcQ"]"

  But nothing happens, no video shows up. What do I have to do?

  That's very helpful. Thanks Ariel. I didn't see the "add media" button. Now it's clear. :)
