# This is your sign

to start using `og:video` on your website.

![](https://blobs.farfield.systems/blobs/bafkreif34vfoiwbguhvq72f425f6kdd7cwwwik2kknwmkjrki7vj6xw5qq)

You can add it with one meta tag:  `<meta property="og:video" content="yoursite.com/demo.mp4">`

Good idea to keep `og:image` as a fallback. `og:video` is currently only supported on a handful of platforms like iMessage, Telegram, and Facebook. Twitter supports it as well through their `twitter:player` tag. 

You can use this prompt to add one to your site, and generate a video if needed! 

> Add og:video metadata and an X Player Card to the site. Use an existing video or generate a short one, create a poster image, and verify the metadata and assets are publicly accessible. Test the link preview in Discord.
