Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Re: [BBCode Suggestion] webm/video support

While we're at it, let's find some autoplay attribute and set it to false for good measure.

Autoplay but mute by default

Can set to not auto-play to enable sound from the start.

Re: [BBCode Suggestion] webm/video support

Well, if someone clicks play, they'd probably be OK with sound.

I bring up the not-autoplay because someone a while ago was upset with the lag from peoples' giant images. My internet doesn't really handle nice big webm downloads, so I figured on voicing the opinion.

It was Gosha, everything makes him lag.

Re: [BBCode Suggestion] webm/video support

video tag in mozilla notes a preload and autoplay option.
I'm for the no preload or autoplay option, as I represent the interests of folks with crappy internet! //forums.everybodyedits.com/img/smilies/big_smile Of course, you could also say "screw you plebeians, set your browser settings to prevent autoload" and that would achieve a similar effect.
(addon for firefox)

Mozilla also notes the muted tag, another relevant suggestion.

edit: safari is a no go for webm

Re: [BBCode Suggestion] webm/video support

No preload, no autoplay, no safari, yes mute. Good luck finding a place that allows permanent hotlinking to webms though.

Imgur, and the people who will use webm will probably have their own host.

Interesting. I guess the video tag would be just about identical to the youtube tag, just with different markup in between it all.

So, video/webm support is on the docket? Or just webm?

Re: [BBCode Suggestion] webm/video support

I already suggested this before //forums.everybodyedits.com/img/smilies/sad
I need this feature because I'm uploading my videos to my website and I don't want to use services like the You Tube.

Shouldn't be so hard to add mp4 support for videos.

[video]http://gosha.eejesse.net/files/2018-03-16_11-42-42.mp4[/video]

should produce this html

<video controls preload="metadata">

i could. But it's sometimes easier to share links instead of uploading them on youtube.
It's an additional step that can be avoided.

Understandable. Idk how difficult this’d be to implement but I guess it could be useful for people who don’t want their videos publicized on YouTube or just don’t want to spend the time/bandwidth uploading it
