# Configuring the shared media IFX

You can load any video that's publicly available through a URL. For this tutorial, we’ll use a trailer for the ENGAGE platform that has been uploaded to YouTube. To configure the video playback, complete the following steps:

1. On the timeline, select the cog icon for the *Play Shared Screen Video* IFX.
2. The first recording finishes its introduction at around `00:00:21`, so enter this as the **Start Time**.
3. In the **Video URL** field, enter <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OHtimtFY3M>
4. The video is 1 minute 51 seconds in length. To ensure that the video is displayed only for as long as necessary, enter the **End Time** as `00:02:12`.
5. Select **Save Effect**.
