Can we change the "Sound of the Present" thread?

<< < (3/3)

Caster no Mae:
well I keep saying that the youtube direct video thing gives more trouble than its worth.
see Caroline's post for more info.


and not everybody has some super fast, super optic supercomputer speeds at their homes

NekoJonez:
I'm basically kinda begging the mod dev to have an option where the links display as raw text. He doesn't answer.

I might attempt it myself though.

I haven't used it myself but in theory it block all Flash elements but you can play a video if you want by clicking on it twice. Once to enable flash for that particular video, twice to actually play it.

This is assuming videos are using flash. In the case of HTML5, use this https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stop-tube/

Don't know any Chrome equivalent of it, though.

Well in my case I need an Opera equivalent. Chrome equivalent don't always work. :P

Actually, in my experience, if it's in a spoiler it functionally doesn't exist to the computer until the spoiler is opened.

Explains why a thread with tons of images loads faster when all of those images are in spoilers.

NekoJonez:
Update!

There won't be a need anymore soon for the flashblock plug-in ^w^

A kind gentleman has given me a piece of code that disables the plugin. I tested it and it works. It will display the url.
Now, he needs to do two tweaks. One is that he needs to add a toggle option in the settings AND possibly that the YT vid will display as an url then. :3

Now isn't that good adminship :3?

NekoJonez:
Hehehe. Fixed a long time ago. Forgot to lock this thread
