Guessing the local storage meant here is the repository folder where videos are present.
The main reason for why it does not work is because videos are not served for your frontend.
I would suggest having a server side setup and serve each video with an url. Then simply refer to that url in your frontend, rather than embedding the whole mp4 within your frontend.
The import myData from "../video.mp4" which works because of webpack simply embedded the whole video binary within your frontend javascript during compilation.
For multiple videos case, the reason why it does not work is simply they are not require or import in your javascript, so they are not embedded to your frontend code.
If you really want to have frontend reading your local files, you may use File System Access API and take a look at this reference, and this is full guide of the API.
If you want to use the map(), you may change the json to something like this, with dob as your video url.
{
"users": [
{
"id": 1,
"name": "Hari",
"email": "anbu@gmail.com",
"phone": "9876543210",
"dob": "http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/BigBuckBunny.mp4"
},
{
"name": "Hari",
"email": "anbu@gmail.com",
"phone": "9876543210",
"dob": "http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/ElephantsDream.mp4",
"id": 5
}
]
}
Then in your iframe, use the dob url for the video
<iframe width="420" height="315"
src={dob}>
</iframe>
