Video won’t load :(
Ugh. Sorry it’s a gif. Are you using mlem by any chance? Loads fine for me in the web browser.
I’ll change it to a static image.
Looks like it might be a bug. In Firefox, I'm seeing "No video with supported format and MIME type found" but if I right-click and open in a new tab, it works.
Would you mind filing a bug on the lemmy-usi repo in GitHub?
I’ve changed it to a static image. It was an animated Seinfeld repost gif before.
I'll be happy to file it. Can you reply with the original video again so I can point it out? I saw the error message.
Of course! Here it is. 😃
~~Thanks! I'm not sure if it's because your instance is so new or not. Can you post it somewhere on your instance and I can check if it loads there? ~~ Edit: Disregard it looks like it does
I’m not sure why that would make any difference, but sure. Here it is.

Apparently it does make a difference. 🤷♂️
I've created the issue. It looks like it only affects when a video is hosted on a different instance than the one you're viewing on. Here's a link to the issue: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1221
That makes sense. Must be some weird security cross site thing. 🙁
Looks like they just merged the change in a few hours ago. Unfortunately it wasn't released in 0.17.4, so it'll probably be in the next release either 0.18.0 or 0.17.5
Wow! That was really fast!
Yeah! Apparently a PR was open a week ago but they just merged it in today.
It’s refreshing to be using an open source application / service and seeing things being worked on in real time.
Being able to set up my own instance and debug stuff before filing a bug is also really neat. Which reminds me, I have some bugs to file!
