Force render issues (raw=1) and shared links won't work for hosting.
images were perfect on all browsers until yesterday afternoon - what is the fix or is this a dropbox issue?

We are rolling out a fix for issues with raw=1 and dl=1 links that started recently. Please try again and let us know if it's still not working.

Hello there,
Im having a major problem withe embedding dropbox video anywhere. MY first post so sorry for potentially noob question.
I use dropbox to embed videos on Shopify, Readymag and other platforms for over 3 years.
I was always using online service https://onelineplayer.com/ to generate <ifame
Yesterday some of the videos just stopped working and are showing grey board with info "video not found or not supported) while other videos, treated in exactly same way are working correctly. Help please this issue happened on live projects and I am being chased by clients/ex clients!
Example of dropbox video working correctly:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/usjnn0cvqzxi60h/grassmarket.mp4?st=gvsu6qd4&dl=0
Example of video not working at all:
I have also notices that the links of the videos with the problem have different structure. Not sure why (these are in the same folder on dropbox)
I will also add I found a solution which seems to be working but for a few hours only:
I change the ending of not working video from dl=0 to raw=1
than I paste it to chrome and it becomes this:
I use this link to feed it to https://onelineplayer.com/ and this works perfectly fine BUT only for a few hours.
help please I might be overcomplicating this, I jsut want to udersntand why some old videos work ok and some are not.
maybe there is also an easier way of embedding videos on the website.
