I copy the public link and put it into the URL field of a custom URL screen. But when the app calls the url it just goes to a blank new screen. Nothing opens. I put the url into my web browser on my mac and when I click it it downloads the video file and then opens a window in a player to play it. But not on the Android phone I'm using to test. It just, as I said, opens a blank page. Any way out of this? Thanks Steve Title Comments I have video files on dropbox. I copy the public link and put it into the URL field of a custom URL screen.

It's cross platform. https://www.buzztouch.com/plugins/plugin.php?pid=3C06F75263AE92A0B802F44 Comments Have you looked at the Video plugin?
