Discourse does support video uploads:

Out of the box this is controlled by 3 site settings:

authorized_extensions_for_staff
theme_authorized_extensions

and

authorized_extensions

Out-of the-box video uploads are not included in authorized extensions. To add them add the appropriate extensions. Eg: mp4 and other video containers.

Also be sure to allow for larger uploads by adjusting max_attachment_size_kb.

Keep in mind that low trust users (eg: trust level 0) can not post videos.
