    @sherwin dubren I'd suggest you look into the below tutorial as it uses Azure Media Services and Azure Media Player to encode the video, store the video in Azure Blob Storage, and create a HTTPS URL for your video. Azure Media Player will ensure your content can be viewed across a variety of browsers and OSs that might have different media codecs installed.
