Uploaded mp4 video files should display with the play controls and preview frame
ummary: Uploaded mp4 video files should display with the play controls and preview frame directly inside the channel for recognizability and immediate playback.
Description: Just as image files received an image preview feature with 4.7 I would like to suggest the same behavior for mp4 video files. Currently there is only an icon and file information in the channel. With a lot of videos uploaded to a channel it becomes hard to distinguish the files.
Also, adding the video play controls below would make it faster to browse through videos.
Could this be implemented using the html5 <video> tag with preload=“none”?
We post alot of small videos and we've relied upon this feature in Slack and we sorely miss it in Mattermost
Thank you for your time.
