I'm trying to use Git LFS to store some videos that I would like to access in an iframe. I was able to push to Github just fine, but now that I am trying to access the videos via the provided url, I get this error: Refused to display 'https://github.com/trentchilders/personal-site.git/info/lfs/warm_sunny1.m4v' in a frame because it set 'X-Frame-Options' to 'deny'.

Here is my markup:

<div class="embed-responsive embed-responsive-4by3">
 <iframe class="embed-responsive-item" 
       src="https://github.com/trentchilders/personalsite.git/info/lfs/
       warm_sunny1.m4v"></iframe>
</div>

I assume I need to update the configuration to allow x-frame options, but I don't see any documentation as to how to do this. Any ideas?

Edit - Turns out that Git LFS does not currently support linking.

If you found your way here because of this issue I recommend looking at Frank's comments below.

  • I think this maybe help you.

  • Thanks for your comment! I tried a few of the ideas in the link you provide but to no avail. It seems like the gist of the responses in your link are for when you are trying to embed a video from YouTube. That's fine, but I was trying to host the videos in my github project using Git LFS. Of course, if I'm unable to solve this, I'll go the YouTube route. – blastocyst.jones Aug 04 '17 at 00:13
  • It's not a limitation of Git LFS per se, it's that GitHub, as a company, doesn't want to be your free video host. – hobbs Aug 04 '17 at 04:40
