Jeff do you mean you’re adding the videos as part of posts of a CMS collection?
Edit ok I saw your site so you have a video field in your collection:

I’ll describe how to switch from a video field to a text field using a custom code widget, step by step. Easy and you’ll see, interesting. I unfortunately can’t do this on your site because I can’t add fields on a read only site.
Let’s add a TEXT field for the video ID, you’ll be able to remove the video field once the job s finished. For your site, you’re using both Youtube and Vimeo videos, so let’s add 2 fields, because the custom code isn’t the same for YT and Vimeo so we need to address that. One text field for YT ID and one for Vimeo ID.

Now I’m going to create 2 records (posts), one with a YT ID of one of your videos, one with a Vimeo ID of one of your videos.
YT video:

So we copy the ID and paste it in a record of the video collection

Vimeo Video:
Same thing, locate and copy the ID

and paste it in a record

We have our two records now

On your site, you are using the videos on the Video template page, let’s do the same. Let’s go to the Video template a create a quick structure and save room for the video

Let’s deal with the Youtube video first. Instead of dragging a video widget, let’s drag a custom code widget

Now let’s go to Youtube to generate the code we need.

Then copy the code

And back to Webflow, paste the code in the custom code widget box
http://vincent.polenordstudio.fr/snap/fevm2.jpg
Now, we’re going to make that code DYNAMIC so it always show the video of the post we’re on. For that we’re going to select the video ID in the code
http://vincent.polenordstudio.fr/snap/w0ype.jpg
then we’re going to click on ADD FIELD and link that piece of code to our Youtube Video ID from our collection
http://vincent.polenordstudio.fr/snap/a068v.jpg
Now it looks like that and… it works already!

Be sure to be on the YT page, right?
http://vincent.polenordstudio.fr/snap/mci96.jpg
OK there are dimensions in the code so let’s address this:
http://vincent.polenordstudio.fr/snap/pri5d.jpg
Put the desired dimensions, height must be in pixels.
Vimeo now. Add another custom code in the same page, yes you’ll have 2 videos in the page, for the moment.

At Vimeos, click on share
http://vincent.polenordstudio.fr/snap/k755s.jpg
http://vincent.polenordstudio.fr/snap/8j2jm.jpg
then link to collection the same way
http://vincent.polenordstudio.fr/snap/l9icu.jpg
then it works when you’re on the vimeo video page
Now let’s tell the YT video to display only when the YT ID is set, and the same for Vimeo video

Et voilà. Sorry it’s long but I just love to draw green arrows.
