What kind of URLs does Google Drive give you? Are they links that contain .mp4 or the video file extension? If no, you will most likely need to add the type parameter to your setup() config:

type: ‘mp4’

The other problem with some of these free hosting sites is that the links they give are not direct links to the video. If the link loads a web page that has the video on it, then it will not work in our player. You need the link to open the video directly in the browser.
