@Rick Yes. Is there a way to show them in a video player in the post? With the video tag maybe? If I click on them it will only show a link in the post as far as I remember.
I found a way to make it work. It doesnt work for links to video attachments uploaded to Friendica but if I upload the video to Seafile or Nextcloud and generate a link from there, I can use the video tag for the link in Friendica.
@Anders Rytter Hansen you can do this with the attachment upload, but you need to get the URL/Link to the file, this can be embedded with the video BBCode that I shared in my other reply here:
@Anders Rytter Hansen I tried it for some video, I can download the video, I can not embed it with the video BBCode. For a flac (Audio) I can take the link and embed it with [audio][/audio], so that is strange again.
So yes, it is not really working.
This 403 sounds like you uploaded some file in a restricted post, which then is restricted to the posts permissions... but that is just a guess.
I am not sure how to deal with this in your case, but maybe have a look at Peertube to share/host the video? But I guess some webserver storing the data would be as sufficient. joinpeertube.org/instances
@Anders Rytter Hansen ah and one more thing... in the past I used my Wordpress blog, uploaded the video there and then just took the link from the gallery there and embedded it here with the video BBCode.
@Matthias ✔ yes, but that was never a function, it was not in 2015 and it is not now. The attachments should only show up as links, obscure links that can be downloaded, but not embedded. I just wanted to show that embedding is working. Embedding of local uploaded files (video, docs and other) was never a function, so this would be a feature request. One with very low to no priority for my opinion, but that is another topic.
So write a feature request for this if you want it.
@Matthias ✔ yes, that sounds about right, as heluecht explains in the issue, it was never meant to do any rendering or get embedded. @𝗝𝗮𝗸𝗼𝗯 :𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮: 🇦🇹 ✅ @Fynh
@Fynh I used Seafile. You need to find the direct download link for the file. On seafile it shows both links on the page where you enable it for public sharing
@Fynh @Anders Rytter Hansen it is because hundreds of servers try to load the file or maybe thousands of users... Maybe videos preload in Mastodon streams?
@Fynh I can recommend Seafile which runs much faster than Nextcloud. Parts of Seafile are written in C/C++ to make it perform quickly. It doesn't have as many features as nextcloud though so I can recommend keeping both for different purposes - Seafile for the purpose of file storage and Nextcloud for calendar, contacts and other apps. You can even map Seafile to your Nextcloud so you can interact with the files from Nextcloud apps.

You can link videos from other services, but there is no implementation of uploading / storing videos in Friendica.

I tried to check it with wget -S --spider but then I get a 403 Forbidden error. Maybe that's the issue 🤔 but in the browser it works fine 🤔

as attachment:So what I entered was: [video]https://social.yl.ms/attach/15[/video]
as video:
social.yl.ms/attach/15
And there I entered: [video]https://social.yl.ms/attach/15[/video]
So if you meant the attachment does not show, yes it seems so.
Someone should open a github issue.
