In what way does your code behave incorrectly? the error is " Did you use the video URL provided?. "

Hello @eliteryan,
in HTML 5 - such as it is used in Codecademy - the video-tag has the source included,
if you only got once soure (like in this case).

So just copy your src-tag into your video-tag, and it should work :slight_smile:

Example:

Old code:

<video width="320" height="240" controls>
    <source src="video-url.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>

New code:

<video width="320" height="240" src="video-url.mp4" controls>
</video>

If you have more than one source, you have to split it up as you did it in your project (video and source as single tags)

Hope I could help you :slight_smile:
If you got further questions, feel free to get in touch with me :smiley:
Make sure to mark my post as solution, so others which face the same
issue will be able to take it as a reference :wink:

Why is this the solution, however the course instructions don't teach us properly. What's the point of learning on codecademy is the instruction to the lesson is incorrect.
