Youtube Videos for Quest? (Patreon)

Short answer, yes, but you need to add "https://t-ne.x0.to/?url=" in front of the YouTube link.
Example:
Original Link (Only works on PC): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzV77KFsLn4Modified Link (Works on PC/Quest): https://t-ne.x0.to/?url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzV77KFsLn4
Quest device doesn't have a YouTubeDL which is needed to resolve links that are not pointing directly to a video file. Users can however use link resolver services like Jinnai which allow Quest players to play videos input by desktop users.Very sadly the VRChat SDK does not support runtime construction for VRCUrl objects besides the player's direct input to the VRCUrlInputField, this means I have no access to modify any of the links. Otherwise, I would just add some code to automatically convert the link.I will add a library of some commonly popular chess video URLs that can be shared both for Quest and PC players in the future though, so don't worry too much about it for now.
