What are you trying to do exactly? Are you trying to transfer files?

Whenever i add a direct link to a .mp4 on discord i want it to show a little thing to play the vid but when i start with ftp:// it considers the entie thing as normal text unless i have it starting with http://

If you're asking if the file is only accessible using an ftp:// URL and you want it so you can get the video player because it only shows up as such using an http:// url, you can't. That's something the server has to work out so it can serve the said file on the http:// server.

If you want people to be able to 'stream' the video, rather than have to download it, then you need to use a webserver that supports the MIME type. 

Such as an Apache, Nginx, or Lighttpd webserver. You cannot use FileZilla to do this.
