What you have as written looks like it wouldn’t work, since the redirect:
/cors-proxy/* /:splat 200!
Would turn whatever is passed into a root relative url, and even if the full url made it through the various parsing, you would end up with:
/https://xyz.mp4
Testing with the playground it appears that the target url must start with a / or be a destination domain url itself, so you cannot have a destination of :slug or https://:slug, but could have https://www.destination.com/:slug
If you aren’t really trying to throw “any url at all at it” you could probably do something like:
