This link goes to Reddit, however, we have used a direct video link to avoid giving them ad revenue.

If possible, could you re-upload this somewhere else? Don’t want to give Reddit a click or traffic, even if they don’t get any revenue for it.

Small update, I have it working, L4s made one successful post doing it that way(still up on profile if you want to see), and looks like it still plays in the browser. Small issue with it double posting, and reposting previous videos. When my kids nap tomorrow I'll probably have more time to finish things up.

@[email protected] final update, L4s is now posting non-Reddit direct links, and I've disabled the previous method it was using to grab the direct link.

Not a bad idea, and might make my code a little cleaner (scraping the front page is messy), if I have time today/tomorrow I'll try to work that into it. Another reason I like doing it how I currently am, is you can play the video from the post by clicking the "play" button, but I might be able to make that work when hosting it elsewhere.
