the “Interactive Frames for Live Streams and VODs” docs (here: [https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/embed/video-and-clips#interactive-frames-for-live-streams-and-vods](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/embed/video-and-clips#interactive-frames-for-live-streams-and-vods))

gives a code example which shows that you can pass a video to start playing a video.

Here’s a fiddle that implements this with a video: [https://jsfiddle.net/0hsbfkm3/](https://jsfiddle.net/0hsbfkm3/)

It does not work.

If you comment out the video id and uncomment the channel name, it works fine. what gives?
