[quote]Today we added support for WebM files on 4chan’s image boards.
While WebM is technically a video file format, it offers many advantages over animated GIFs—namely superior image quality, support for more than 256 colors, and reduced file size. Its main disadvantage is browser compatibility, however 86% of 4chan’s visits come from browsers that include full or partial support for WebM, and plug-ins are available for those that don’t (like Internet Explorer and Safari).
We decided to disallow WebM files with sound for a few reasons, but mainly because it’s our intention to provide the site with better animated images, and not true video support. To that end, we only accept WebM files with one video stream and no audio streams, that are shorter than 120 seconds long, no larger than 2048x2048 pixels, and less than 3 MB in size.[/quote]
I hope webm can become the new standard for animated images, gif is insanely outdated and inferior
This is very good, GIFs are cool for super small images but I really hate those people who insist on showing everything in low-framerate, piss-poor quality, yet 30MB gifs
I've seen these over the last couple of days and it's pretty cool.
Great quality videos as well
This is cool but [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/v6VuJsN.png[/IMG]can this be removed?
Too bad moot won't let us have audio streams and limits how long the clip can be. Appchan X also needs to add support for in-line expansion of webm videos.
Here's a comparison for you guys btw

GIF = 4.5MB
[vid]http://zippy.gfycat.com/AlertSpicyBlueandgoldmackaw.mp4[/vid]
<video> html5 version: 286kb, 16 times smaller
(facepunch doesnt have them set to autoplay, autoloop, and hide the control bar, but 4chan does I guess)
that doesn't even play for me
The best part is all the porn posted there tends to be with webm now.
I recommend giving [URL="http://gfycat.com/""]gfycay[/URL] a try.
My own thingy:
[URL="http://giant.gfycat.com/ElegantNeatKissingbug.gif[/url"]I won't even embed the gif because it's sodding 55MB[/URL]
MP4

(At least one of these two should play for you, both play for me)

I hear that.
not sure where the issue is, but the HTML5 player absolutely refuses to buffer at all sometimes, no matter how good the bandwidth is on both sides
/v/ keeps going on about how they got 60 fps before consoles. They love it.

No audio to stop screamers from what I've been told (Mod posts can use audio) but I'd rather have a size limit rather than length limit but I have seen 28 second clips posted before.

move your mouse off the player you doofus

Because screamers, because /b/ ruins the fun for everybody. I think one board still has access to sound, I hope Moot will just restrict some boards or something.
Wave of the future right here, since APNG refuses to catch on.
[QUOTE=FurrehFaux;44478693]Appchan X also needs to add support for in-line expansion of webm videos.[/QUOTE]
they already do though?
Can't find a way to have them open within the thread or loop or anything, but damn this is cool.

complaining about the lack of audio streams is comically missing the point of this
jesus, check the bees on post 41213234 in the [url=https://boards.4chan.org/g/res/41212767]4chan instructions thread[/url]
9 seconds of crisp 60fps video, and under 3mb
just wow

okay the last one works
This is great but what's the point of the 2 minute limit? Keep the filesize limit but remove the time limit.

Probably because by the time you've finished watching a 2 minute video, the thread has fallen off the last page.
[QUOTE=Scot;44478868]move your mouse off the player you doofus[/QUOTE]
You can actually set HTML5 video to have no controls even when you hover over, and also to loop

[QUOTE=Wizards Court;44479523]is that a jagdpanzer IV?[/QUOTE]
yes, /70
I feel like this is really going to help push webm's usage
I hope for the future they make the program easier to use.

/d/ is going to get a whole lot better
