Is the video component on the webpage demo working?
It's not a photo but actually, a video (I just turned off autoplay), if you toggle controls and turn on the preview you should be able to see it play. About the edit button, I think it's a bug, should not be there, I'll check it later
Read full answer below βQuestion
I wanted to study how to use the video component but the one on the demo website (http://grapesjs.com/demo.html) doesn't seem to be working?
Dropping a video component into the canvas shows a still photo with some lights. If I click the edit icon, the photo editor opens with no content and no toolbar and a bunch of JS errors in the console.
