I’m creating an app that will feature a lot of short videos (each 2-5mb) that will be streaming from Google Drive.

Before I dig too deep into this project, is anyone aware of streaming limits for videos stored on Google Drive being shown in Glide?

Example:

- download/stream bandwidth limits
- simultaneous stream/access limits

I checked the documentation and searched the forum here but I don’t see any mention of video limits for Google Drive videos.

I don’t know if there are defined limits, but I have seen several posts regarding issues people have had while using Google drive for hosting and streaming of media. Sometimes Google will see it as abuse and block it. I guess I would look for different media hosting options as I’ve read the drive is not really meant to be a streaming host.
