HTML ID as new render mode for Video Player

I am trying to adapt the streaming video sample so that the Video appears in an HTML element outside of the the three.js scene.

It seemed it might be a good feature if you could just point a videoplayer at an HTML tag and have it send the video there at runtime.

I amy take a stab at doing something like that but I thought I would toss out the idea.

Thats actually what is happening behind the scenes
Maybe all we need to do is expose a way to give the videoplayer component an existing video element instead of creating a new one

Whatever way flows best with how your code is structured.

You could also try grabbing the VideoElement the player is creating and make that visible. Not sure what would preferred (maybe there are cases for both)

I’ll give that a look… I’m still in a POC stage so if it works for now that’s all that matters
