Play local mp4 file electronically

Question

I am trying to develop a small application in which I first capture the screen through a package apertureand then try to display it on the screen using a tag video.

I take a screen through:

import apertureConstructor from 'aperture';
const aperture = apertureConstructor();

const options = {
  fps: 30
};

(async () => {
  await aperture.startRecording(options);
  setTimeout(async () => {
    this.captureUrl = await aperture.stopRecording();
  }, 3000)
})();

Please ignore the clutter. aperturethe package writes the captured video to disk, and in the end I have a path to this file in captureUrl. This is something like this:

/var/folders/29/08gshk3n4mlbbcjnm1m5xyy40000gp/T/tmp-79999m0uOszQK0zaC.mp4

I can verify that this file exists and plays perfectly if I type: file:///var/folders/29/08gshk3n4mlbbcjnm1m5xyy40000gp/T/tmp-79999m0uOszQK0zaC.mp4into the address bar of Google Chrome.

Therefore, I am trying to use this address as the source of the tag videoas follows:

 <video control autoplay>
   <source src="/var/folders/29/08gshk3n4mlbbcjnm1m5xyy40000gp/T/tmp-8004145a2o4gugbVV.mp4" type="video/mp4">
 </video>

Which complains that there is no file (404):

GET http://localhost:9080/var/folders/29/08gshk3n4mlbbcjnm1m5xyy40000gp/T/tmp-8004145a2o4gugbVV.mp4 404 (Not Found)

, localhost:9080, , .

, file://...

<video controls autoplay>
  <source src="file:///var/folders/29/08gshk3n4mlbbcjnm1m5xyy40000gp/T/tmp-8004145a2o4gugbVV.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
