Forum Videos do not load

Videos posted in the forum do not load, they are at 0:00-0:00. It attempts to load for a second then just goes to blank. Other websites that use the default chrome video player works fine, this is what appears that the devfourm also uses. This issue is on every single video. Once in a while the video loads, then it stops after 2 seconds.

Expected behavior

It is expected to have the video be watchable. When the page is loaded, there should be the video to watch.

I have just realized i forgot reproduction steps:

  1. Open a forum to post with a video
  2. Scroll down/Find the video
  3. Video will not load
    Bug Reproduced

This video is uploaded from Discord, and Discord themselves says that this content is no longer available. This is not a bug.

hello! this is not a bug but rather a mistake on my part, i linked a video hosted on discord’s cdn which has since expired (attachments have a lifetime of about a week, i think?)

i’ll refresh the link in a bit and reupload it somewhere where it can’t expire and where it can’t suffer from bad bandwidth (devforum has been suffering from this for a while now)

For the future, prefer posting forum bugs in #forum-help:forum-bugs (but via bug report form is okay if you’re not sure).
