Glad you like that idea since

QuoteWhat it does:
After the page loads it searches the msg_ divs for links, and for links that it recognizes and can parse (youtube, vimeo) it gets the video thumbnail and inserts that in the page in place of the link. Clicking on the image will cause it to embed the video in the page. Doing it this way is a little less overhead then embedding it from the start.

Thats what you have

Hi, I don't think my question warrant a new topic.

Is the normal behaviour of media embedding is not enabled if inserted in quote?

Yes,

Links inside of quotes are not rendered. That same is true for links in signatures.

If you wanted to change that you would have to edit the elk_jquery_embed.js, look for // Ignore in quotes and signatures in that file

Thanks! Nah... not gonna enable it, I can see why it disabled.

Just curious is it the intended behaviour.

How about embedding arbitrary streamable http links?

I'm not sure it would be easy to automatically detect arbitrary streamable urls.

Well, that would mean that they should be supplied with a BBC tag. Possibly separate video and audio tags.

Video/audio embedding doesn't necessarily mean auto-play.

Facebook is doing auto play. Hate it.

Note that I never meant for auto play to happen for any video I embed. Just an option of playing it, for when the browser a user is viewing the page with will simply force them to pre-download the entire video and play it locally.
