There still appears to be some confusion on posting videos…
- You need to copy the embed code from YouTube for video to display, you can't post the link (either the main url or share link)
- Either right-click on the video or click share button to find embed code
- Premium users can then paste embed code to a Thread (not non-premium due to character limit) and have enough space for a little other text
- It's not necessary to edit the embed code, but you can do if it helps (with display, play or you need the extra space etc)
- Tag appropriately if you want it to appear in a particular community or grouped in some way (eg musiconleo)
Why make it so complex? We need simple media embedding across Hive/Leo. Should be able to just paste in links to videos, tweets etc. Otherwise people just won't bother.
Agreed. I have somewhat avoided participating for that very reason... and I'm not even sure how this all helps with actual content discovery.
Correct, and I'm sure we'll get there. That's just the current situation and I saw a few people having a discussion and getting confused (and making it more complex!), so trying to help out. It's a process of refinement, and I guess a few things being tested till we hit the sweet spot...
I disagree with the direction of some Leo stuff. I think posting links to external pages is a vital part of microblogging, but they discourage it. I get that they want to keep eyes on the ads, but we can't be duplicating content. IMHO
Thanks for the clarification! A lot of people need to read this.
Thank you for the info..I tried it and realized I would have to pay to play with it. !lol #toofuckeh

But that’s a lie. I much prefer the Metric system.

Please I want to know if anyone with an android can share the video.
Not sure about mobile devices. Should be fine but maybe you need to test it out. I mainly just use my laptop as mobile is a bit awkward on Leo... hopefully it becomes smoother soon!
Okay thanks
