The above comment embeds this link:

https://files.catbox.moe/x25omr.mp4

Voyager Version: 2.9.1 (just updated and retested)

Also tried turning silent off on the iPhone 14 Pro just in case

PS: aeharding, you the bomb 💙


Edit: I mean to say I can’t use a control on the video to open the video URL in a browser. I was able to use Voyager’s feature to open the specific comment in a browser window though, and there (in Safari) it played with sound and some native iOS controls when I tapped on it.

    Video support in comments is currently limited to short reaction GIFs - e.g. no scrubbing/unmuting. As a workaround I recommend linking to videos instead of embedding. In the future this will likely get better :)

      Thanks for the info!!

      Coulda sworn it was supported in the past, otherwise I would’ve framed it more as an enhancement request.

      Hope you’re nearly to a good weekend :)

    The video plays for me as well but no sound. I’m using the PWA on iOS.

    On Android here: the video plays on the comment from brbposting but there is no audio and no controls for play/pause, mute/unmute, etc.

    Audio did not play for me in Voyager but I was able to copy the URL to Safari and open it where it did play.

      Thanks, and me too.

      Added when you reminded me:

      Thanks for that, I have to check that fediverse investigator site and see if the two of us are defederated or something.
