Before you print
Host it somewhere reliable
The video needs to stay at the same address for as long as the printed code exists. A personal file link that expires will break it.
Make it work without sound
Most scanning happens in public. Captions or on-screen text are essential, not a nice extra.
Use a dynamic code
Videos get re-edited and re-uploaded. A dynamic code means the new version replaces the old without reprinting anything.
Common questions
Can I put the video itself inside the QR code?
No. QR codes hold a small amount of text, nowhere near enough for video. The code stores a link to where the video is hosted.
