Customisable & self-hosted Video Player

It would be very cool to have a custom video player where self-hosted and/or embedded videos could be implemented inside of Webflow. In addition, the player itself can be changed in its look, like the icons could be replaced or elements could be hidden. 

Example of a nice customisable video player lib: https://plyr.io/

    Just joined Webflow and from what I've seen, they're doing their absolute best to keep hosting super limited (cheap) on their end. (yet, they charge a super premium for it! haha) This is reflected in the 1995-era low upload limits (4MB files). So I highly doubt they want any videos to be hosted in any way shape or form. (30MB limit is astoundingly low and makes the videos look awful unless they're tiny and about 2 seconds in length.) They weren't very transparent about it. I would have considered a different platform had I known this.

    I don't have any more votes, but this would be a great thing to have! 

    Custom look and feel. 
    Options to change what happens after the video has played. 
      -Start over
      - Show a message
      - Go black. close or redirect
    Change the size as pleased of the video frame. 
    Play on load
    Pause other video playing if another one plays
    And so much more :)
