4Chan allows .webm format, world rejoices

.gifs don't play automatically on 4chan either, you have to click on them and then they expand and start playing. So presumably .webm's also don't play automatically because that was a choice they made, not because they can't play automatically.
I think specific browsers don't auto play it loop by default. This is independent of 4chans limitations.

Which I like cause you can choose what to watch and what not to in gif heavy threads.
 
This is 3mb with no sound and a tiny resolution. Gifs feel so outdated now.

Goddamn. That cat would be out on the streets in 2 seconds if that was my boy. Fuck that thing.

sry for the editorializing.

Because that's the cat's fault? The kid fucking slapped a cat. He deserved that. I was so happy to see the cat retaliate to that shit. If you think disowning a cat for your kid mistreating it is the right thing to do, then I'm kind of dumbfound. Get the pun?

Yeah thanks for the reply. I think automatically playing could happen on other sites like here on GAF. Honestly I just didn't have a clue on how to navigate that site, it's a fucking mess.


Evilore please consider this format. It could save us tons of bandwidth.
 
Google is the main driver of .webm


edit to add: there is a firefox addon html5 loop that puts the loop option in the context menu.

How long until Google starts phasing this in? (And will they bother converting their current video database to save on bandwidth costs on their end?)
 
I wish you guys could see all the 10-30 second porn clips in my VLC iPhone app. This shit is absolutely off the charts nuts.
 
Wow between this and finaly having a Shadow play compatible card, sharing gaming moment is gonna be soo easy ( and in full 60fps epicness ).

Thought a version of ffmepg with an UI to make things easier ( path etc... ) could be usefull... ^ ^" ( edit : oh nice the Converter do this already <3 )
 
Damn, I never knew this stuff existed. It looks great and file sizes are so small. Great for mobile of course if the browsers get support.

I hope gaf can support. Save some bandwidth.

Looping works great for me on chrome. Not on FF though.
 
The best part about this is easily the efficiency of WebM. This is fucking leagues better.

I need to figure out how to cut and splice videos.
