No problem. The way I did so is that I went to Special:Videos, clicked "add video", entered the URL, and everything was good to go in a couple of clicks.

The issue you had is you tried to preload the video with a link when the video was not uploaded to the wiki first under its filename premade when doing the steps I had undertaken above. If a video or image is external, it will only be displayed as a link, and if it is linked in a way to say the video or image is on the wiki, you get the redlink. See Help:Links.

Again, no problem. Thank you for the video.
