The Video Player component in IdeaBoard allows you to embed and play videos directly on your whiteboard. Instead of switching to external tabs or media players, you can watch demos, tutorials, reference clips, or recorded sessions right where your brainstorming happens.
The video appears as an interactive player with playback controls, enabling teams to collaborate visually and maintain all context in one organized space.
