I have implemented a video component without using any react plugin. It supports both Youtube and Vimeo. The code snippet is very small. Please see below

<iframe
  width="100%"
  height="345"
  title="event-video"
  src={videoUrl}
/>

Here I retrieve the videoUrl from Sitecore Item which should be of the embedding type. You can also retrieve the videoUrl from a GraphQL. Below are examples of the urls

Youtube

Vimeo

https://player.vimeo.com/video/421689971

To get the Embedded URL, you can retrieve it by clicking on Share button and then select the embed part. See screenshot below
