[Suggestion] MP4 embed - Blink - 07-26-2017

I've always thought that users should have the ability to embed MP4 links.

There's quite a bit of video players that help with this, so I don't see why this would be an issue code-wise. (although I don't know much about MyBB, so correct me if I'm wrong)

Hmmm not sure about this.

It would be nice, but in a big thread it would increase loading times quite a bit, correct me if wrong.

If It doesn't affect loading times, will be widely used by the community and easy enough to Implement, then personally I don't see why not.

Members are already limited to one video per thread.

Side note: There's an HTML5 <video></video> tag. (https://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_video.asp)

I agree, but on bigger threads, where 10-20 people reply with videos it might increase loading times a little bit, it doesn't matter to me, but there might be people on SL that have real slow download speeds and that might be trouble for them.

Maybe only load the videos when you click them or something would be better.

We DO have embedable YouTube and other sites, which should also increase loading speed.

Well, you got me there. Nothing more to say.
