Video support in comments is currently limited to short reaction GIFs - e.g. no scrubbing/unmuting. As a workaround I recommend linking to videos instead of embedding. In the future this will likely get better :)

Thanks for the info!!
Coulda sworn it was supported in the past, otherwise I would’ve framed it more as an enhancement request.
Hope you’re nearly to a good weekend :)
On Android here: the video plays on the comment from brbposting but there is no audio and no controls for play/pause, mute/unmute, etc.
Same. Thanks!
Audio did not play for me in Voyager but I was able to copy the URL to Safari and open it where it did play.
Thanks, and me too.
Added when you reminded me:
Edit: I mean to say I can’t use a control on the video to open the video URL in a browser. I was able to use Voyager’s feature to open the specific comment in a browser window though, and there (in Safari) it played with sound and some native iOS controls when I tapped on it.
I suspected but wanted to be thorough just in case
The video plays for me as well but no sound. I’m using the PWA on iOS.
Thanks for reporting in :)
And assume you meant “but no sound”
Lol whoops. You’ve got it right. I fixed up my previous comment
Same here. Including when silent is off.
That's weird, for me on Voyager, no comments at all are displayed for the linked post.
Thanks for that, I have to check that fediverse investigator site and see if the two of us are defederated or something.
