I'm sorry. I am a bit dense. How is this useful? I can write in word document. I just need some ideas on why I would spend time coding this instead of writing this out on word document.

How we can achieve this ?

2020-11-11. Video does not start. Might be connected to an issue with the ad that runs before it. That ad does not run, either. I just get the last frame where it says 'click here'. Skip ad just gets the white circle going round and round on the black screen.
