HLS isn't really a viable alternative as it only offers 720p and desktop Chrome doesn't support it. That doesn't work for us, so we need direct play support. |

This is particularly important for our clients who are predominantly in the family & domestic violence sector, for whom YouTube is a security risk (because it shows videos in browsing history). I would also very much love to see Bunny added as a native option so we don't have to use hacky workarounds. |

Yes. The html widget doesn't seem to support the iframe code provided by Bunny.net. This should be a very simple fix. |

I had to develop a own small plugin to implement token support for bunny (this should be taken care off in the same development process to cover the security side of the implementation). It uses shortcodes and ajax loading to circumvent caching issues with the tokens. |

Prerequisites
What problem is your feature request going to solve? Please describe.
Bunny.net is widely recognized as a preferred provider for VOD (Video-on-Demand) videos. They offer two options for users to share their videos: HLS playlists and embedded iframes. Unfortunately, it appears that Elementor restricts iframe support to only Vimeo, YouTube, and Dailymotion, while relying on the self-hosted option for direct play links.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be great to have the option of directly adding bunny.net to the list of supported platforms in Elementor or allowing the use of custom iframe URLs without the need for the custom HTML widget. This would provide more flexibility and convenience for users when embedding videos from bunny.net.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I have the option to utilize their MP4 fallbacks or HLS playlists with Elementor Pro. I conducted tests using developer tools to verify that changing the source during preview displays the embed correctly, and it indeed does. While I could modify the source code for a demonstration, I believe this change is straightforward to implement.
