dropbox add video

Hej guys. I am trying to add a video from my dropbox as Nick suggested, but it doesn't seem to work. I check the privacy and my video is available to be shared with everyone, but still does not work. Can you please guide me to solve this?

Just upload to youtube and have the video unlisted. Copy and paste the embeded code.

example code. 

<body>
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/GHpqWex2mJo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</body>

example! I edit videos and make sounds!

Is the video certain format like .mp4 the file extensions and format matter for stream. If it's a like different format the person probably has to download the entire video.

Youtube will convert to streamable format. Honorable mention is vimeo you can set videos to private.
