After adding the widget, Content and Settings options will be visible. Start from the Content tab.

Content 

Under the Content tab, you will find two settings options to control the following: 

Video Source: If you want to upload your own video from the Media Library, select Upload Video. If you prefer to use a direct link, choose Custom MP4 URL. 

In this example, Custom MP4 is selected.

Step 2: Control Video Interaction and Scroll Behavior

Use these settings to control how the video behaves during scrolling. This includes pinning, playback controls, and the scroll distance required to play the full video.

Settings

Pin option: This option controls whether the video stays fixed while scrolling. You will find three options: Default, Off, and On. If you do not want the video to remain fixed, select Off. 

However, in this example, On is chosen.

Video Control: It allows users to manually control the video, such as play and pause, in addition to scroll-based playback.

In this example, the option is enabled by selecting On.

Scroll height: It controls how much scrolling is required to play the entire video. 

For example, if the video duration is 10 seconds and the scroll height is set to 2000px, the user must scroll 2000px to reach the end of the video. 

In this example, 1500px is used, but you can choose any value based on your needs
