Description

This warning is appearing 30 times during provisioning. It clutters logs and hinders dev experience (https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/issues/32888).

I appears to be due to thirdparty being set as True here (is it correct to set it to True?):

Research direction

Start in xmodule/video_block/video_block.py at lines 1212-1213 and reproduce the warning during provisioning. Trace how the third-party setting affects handler URLs for VideoBlockWithMixins; done means provisioning no longer emits the repeated warning while third-party handler URLs remain supported.
