Hi Cameron! Thanks for reaching out - are you dragging mp4 files into the description field, or pasting a link in?

This is for a PR opened by someone else on Github. So I am just viewing the PR description and seeing a link. On GitHub the link is rendered as a video player instead.

Thanks for the info @Cameron Perry, for the video you’re trying to preview, what file extension/format is it in?

No file extension present, looks like it’s the format from Github when you drag/drop to upload a video via their UI:

<https://github.com/><repo>/assets/<id>/<id>

It sounds like you may already show a video player if the URL is a .mp4, for example? Hopefully there is some way to detect what those GitHub asset URL’s are for, since as far as I know that’s how they handle any videos we upload into the PR description.

Hmm thanks for flagging! Creating a ticket for this now
