S3 Bucket Link to Video Not Working

Question

I don't know how to describe this. We have buckets in the Amazon S3. In these buckets I have videos uploaded. When I "copy URL" on one of these videos and share it, or go to the link myself, the video is NOT running. Why can I not get the video to run?

Here is the link: https://everydayleadershipmasterlibrary.s3.amazonaws.com/Videos/0.+Intro_1.mp4

Does it play for you? Help. Thanks!

Hi,

On my machine (MacOS), it runs after 3s. So, quite fast!

Maybe an issue in the config of your video viewer?  Try with a different  browser / viewer to understand the issue in your config.

Please, look at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14946421/why-do-webkit-browsers-need-to-download-the-entire-html5-video-mp4-before-play to see that other people have issues of video not playing until full downloaded.

I just let the link sit there and it finally started playing after about 3 minutes. It's good that it played, but not good that it took so long.
