[pmwiki-users] to embed or not to embed

[Petko Yotov]

Embedding locally attached videos is not supported: I haven't found the 
time to make it work consistently across different browsers.

If you want to enable it, you could alter the installation code to this:


   if($action=="browse" || $_REQUEST['preview']) { # existing line

     # new 2 lines
     $HTMLFooterFmt['ape-local'] = '<script type="text/javascript">
     var uAPErx = [ [/^(.*\.(mp4|mkv|avi|mp3|ogg|flac))$/i, "$1"] 
];</script>';

     # existing lines
     $HTMLFooterFmt['ape'] = '<script type="text/javascript"
       src="$FarmPubDirUrl/ape/ape.js"></script>';
   }


The line with 'ape-local' and the next line were inserted, and allow you 
to let the browser try to embed mp4|mkv|avi|mp3|ogg|flac files.

Note, this is something that I cannot support if it doesn't work in some 
way. Some day, if I find some free time, I may to work on it. For the 
moment, consider uploading your videos to a supported platform.
