Hard to tell at the current resolution, but you probably missed at least one UV seam. Try to think about seam placement like making a paper cut out model. [this video]

Image textures needs UV Unwrapped Object. You have to UV unwrap it first! Select the object an switch to Edit Mode . Press U and unwrap it! [LINK] Now you have to adjust faces in UV Editor for desired result. For more about UV Mapping refer this [LINK] , this [LINK] or this [this video] UV Mapping only works in Edit Mode

This looks like a problem with the UV mapping. If you are not sure what that is then you will find lots of tutorials about it on Youtube [this video] Your room walls will need at least one vertical edge marked as a seam. Then a basic UV unwrap and scaling of UV islands so that your stucco texture looks correct.

It depends on the model you have as well as the UV deployment method you have chosen, and where you have marked your seams. The following is documentation on the general workflow of UV unwrap and its use in industry [LINK] Here is a blender tutorial on how UV works [this video] In this other tutorial you will see more advance UV workflow of blender [LINK] Notably through the use of add-ons simplifying life by integrating tools to optimize the UV space(Tex tools, UV Packmaster...).

I guess you haven't UV unwrap the mesh. Select the object, in edit menu and Unwrap it by clicking "U" and you can either do it manually or select the Smart UV to unwrap. Check this video to understand it: [this video] If you actually did it but still it isn't showing, then you need to share the blend file along with the textures packed in it so that others can view it(You actually shared only the blend file, not textures). This might help you: [LINK]

I can't see in your videos if you mark your seams. watch thiis [this video] and see if that helps, if not, you could share your blend file to take a look at it

Recommends ETHAN DAY · 2020-10 · Blender Stack Exchange · on “Streched Texture”

you can go into your UV editor, and scale down the part that you don't want to be stretched on the x axis. If you're not sure how to do this, I would recommend watching this video: [this video]

Recommends Yohello 1 · 2020-12 · Blender Stack Exchange · on “imported STL file -> textured added not displayed”

I'm not sure how to do that, you should watch this video much better than I can explain [this video] But at this point I suggest just exporting FBX or .blend with all external files packed.

It looks like you haven't UV-unwrapped it. This might get you started: [this video] What happens if you just add a color? Mute texture nodes by selecting and pressing `[m]`.

Try project from view or place the uv islands manually to match the grid! [this video] check this video for more info.
