Answer

If you just want to use PHP to provide video file bytes into HTML5 <video> then try as:

(1) index.php: (can be index.html)…

<video width="640" height="400" controls>
<source src="stream.php" type="video/mp4">
</video>

(2) stream.php:

<?php
    
    $file = "http://91.121.207.115/downloads/American.Traitor.The.Trial.of.Axis.Sally.007.BR.mp4";
    
    $contents = readfile( $file );
    echo $contents; //# send back to HTML...
    exit;
?>
