I believe the answer is:

provides

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'supplies expert' is the definition.
'provides' can be an answer for 'supplies' ('provide' can be a synonym of 'supply'). I'm not sure about the 'expert' bit.

'videos after oscar loss' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
an anagram of 'videos' is 'ovides' which is within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'with' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for provides that I've seen before include "Supplies, furnishes" , "Gives what is desired or needed" .)
