We have a forum at forum.intercoin.org that we installed, but we are not Ruby or Discourse experts.
Currently we have been hosting our videos on YouTube and embedding them. But for regulatory reasons, we’d like to bring the videos “in-house” and set the metadata of the page to allow sharing. The idea is that people will see the thumbnail, title and description but not the video outside our site, and we must put custom disclaimers when people visit, before they can see the video.
Is there a plugin for this? If not, would anyone on this site be interested in developing one for us for $$? Please contact me at greg+d @atintercoin.org .
It would probably need a custom player that plays videos in a format accepted by all browsers. And lets admins manage metadata for some topics’ pages.
The thing is, we can’t use Vimeo or some external host, unless they let us embed the video on our site but NOT allow someone to visit the page on their site, so that the only way they can view the video is by agreeing to our disclaimers first.
Hide this video from vimeo.com (Plus + PRO + Business + Premium only) - This video can be embedded on other sites but can’t be viewed on vimeo.com. (Your video cannot appear in Channels and Groups but can still be added to Albums and Portfolios.)
Should these disclaimers be required when someone signs up to use your site? If you could do that then it would be much easier to just allow the embedding of videos directly.
Yes, that’s true. You could potentially hide videos from anonymous users with CSS, but someone who’s a little savvy could find them so it wouldn’t be particularly secure. You’d need a custom plugin otherwise.
If the filetype is enabled in your settings, videos can be posted directly as you would with images. The full video isn’t loaded for the user until it’s played. For example:
MP4 is probably the best format to use, it’s supported by all modern browsers.
There’s no code required from the poster to embed the video, as long as you have the video filetype set in the authorized extensions setting you can upload it or drag it into the composer as if you’re posting an image.
You can also post a link to an externally hosted MP4 on its own line, and it’ll be embedded
For example, putting this link on its own line https://i.imgur.com/cLEzWIh.mp4
Embeds the video like this:
The video is embedded using the HTML5 <video> tag, which uses your browser’s native player.
Desculpe reativar este tópico, mas estou com dificuldades para incorporar arquivos mp4 que hospedamos localmente. Eles aparecem apenas como links, não como vídeos reproduzíveis.
Um exemplo pode ser encontrado aqui: Screencast: creating an account at the Language Archive - Archiving info - The Language Archive Forums
Você sabe qual pode ser o problema? Configurei as extensões autorizadas para a equipe para aceitar todos os tipos de arquivo e adicionei nl nos TLDs de linkificação do Markdown.
Isso realmente funciona ao fazer upload de um vídeo, mas quando quero apenas exibir um vídeo a partir de um link (veja o link que postei), ele não o detecta como tal. Vou analisar o componente de vídeo que o Thomas enviou.
