I'm glad to see that GitHub finally allows embedding videos in the README.md so that people can stop using gifs there.
- mrighele 5y agoIn Firefox under linux I see a "No video with supported format and MIME type found". It seems that Gifs are still more widely supported...
- c01n 5y agoHmm, I use Firefox (dev edition) on Linux and the video is playing with no problem
- spicybright 5y agoI can see it in firefox stable under macos
- BlackLotus89 5y agoMaybe you use umatrix? You have to allow githubusercontent.com
- lavela 5y agoI can see it in firefox stable under fedora
- gentleman11 5y agoI could see it with Firefox on iOS
- throwaway3699 5y agoFirefox iOS is just Safari.
- jay_kyburz 5y agoDidn't work for me in Safari because Apple stopped updating my iPad. I wish Epic would bring that up at the trial.
- butz 5y agoYou need to install non-free video codecs. It would be great if GitHub recommended using open video codecs for people uploading videos. AV1 would be a good candidate, but Safari still doesn't support it.
- my123 5y agoIt's really not the time to embed AV1 only everywhere. Lots of hardware around doesn't have hardware video decoding for it. If a free codec is needed, better to use VP8 (or _maybe_ VP9). (AV1 decoding appeared in hardware for Intel Tiger Lake, NVIDIA Ampere and AMD RDNA2)
