I've seen this on quite a lot of other forums, where they have a special [media] or [youtube] code that allows people to imbed youtube videos into their posts. I was just wondering, but does the .Org intend on implementing something like this in the near future? And if not, why?
Don't want. :book:

It will be irritating for some people.
There they are surfing from their work PC and suddenly a not Worksafe video opens.
You've got a point here, StigQuote:

As I stated in the thread, I wasn't too keen on an automatic page download for both browser security and work-safe reasons. I think he has disabled the code for now.
What exactly are you doing browsing the net at work?Quote:

This would only be semi-worthwhile in the off-topic forums, and really, why embed something when you can just post a link?
more work + no gain/some loss = bad idea :bow:
How about embedded media inside of spoiler tags?
Still loaded on viewing the thread, iirc
It's just not needed - we have all the embedded media that we need with [img] and [url] tags :beam:
But I often notice they don't really start loading when embedded and slow down the scrolling somehow.Quote:

I think those problems might just be a problem on your side - i've never noticed anything like that.Quote:

As said above, what would we watch?
Links work fine. They open in a new window, we listen while still browsing the org :yes:
Definitely not an issue with Opera - i use it all the time, never any probs with embedded videos.Quote:
