builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
builder.insert_online_video("https://youtu.be/t_1LYZ102RA", 360, 270)
# We can watch the video from Microsoft Word by clicking on the shape.

doc = aw.Document()
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
video_url = "https://vimeo.com/52477838"
# Insert a shape that plays a video from the web when clicked in Microsoft Word.
# This rectangular shape will contain an image based on the first frame of the linked video
# and a "play button" visual prompt. The video has an aspect ratio of 16:9.
# We will set the shape's size to that ratio, so the image does not appear stretched.
builder.insert_online_video(video_url, aw.drawing.RelativeHorizontalPosition.LEFT_MARGIN, 0,
aw.drawing.RelativeVerticalPosition.TOP_MARGIN, 0, 320, 180, aw.drawing.WrapType.SQUARE)
doc.save(ARTIFACTS_DIR + "DocumentBuilder.insert_online_video.docx")

builder.insert_break(aw.BreakType.PAGE_BREAK)
# 2 - Insert a floating shape:
left = builder.page_setup.right_margin - image.width
top = builder.page_setup.bottom_margin - image.height
builder.insert_online_video(video_url, video_embed_code, thumbnail_image_bytes,
