Questions on behalf of a fellow bikepacker (@sebbiebikes) who recently joined the fediverse: 1. Is the 40mb limit on #loops videos still a thing? @dansup 2. Apparently, for some users loops doesn’t convert videos automatically. May this be caused by #android app or browser (iOS app converts without any problem) or is this a bug to be fixed? 3. Can the loops and/or #pixelfed be connected to raster views on websites? Is this something to be programmed on side of the website?
1. Yes, at least on the web version it's clearly labelled as such. 2. Might be worth a bug report, you'd need to specify which formats you're using etc. 3. I don't think Pixelfed/Loops content can be embedded into a third party website yet, not sure if this is a planned feature.
@dansup Especially 3.) is an interesting question 🤔
@dansup Thanks for the answer!! I already sent this embed explanation to @sebbiebikes but aparennetly it didn’t work. And what about the lack of 40mb converter? Is this a bug or related to browser use?
@dansup Great, thx for your reply 🫶🏼 I think it would be great to have an embed function for all videos uploaded on a profile or at least for playlists! Is this something you could code, @graves501? @sebbiebikes
What do you mean by playlists? I'm not familiar with Loops' codebase, nor am I familiar with PHP. I also don't have the time to look at it, but it might be interesting in the future.
