Everything seems to work as intended, but I have two "complaints".

I have a little bit of the 'tism in regards to third party javascript references from any site. The forum didn't have to have those to function up until now (There was the youtube-nocookie ones, but you could just open them in youtube externally). Are there any plans to just host those scripts locally or is that not feasible?
Second, I noticed that the videos, when loaded, are never stored in cache. With the previous way of just letting the browser handle it, I assume it happened depending on the browser. Is there a plan to allow the browser to cache at least smaller videos? I know this is not much of a concern for most people, but it'd be good for people who occasionally browse from India-tier ISPs'
 
I have plenty of odd and funky video formats. Trying out MOVs first. but for sure what the people really desire is support for 90s era proprietary ATI capture card format!

H264 in MOV container

MJPG in MOV container

NTSC DV in MOV container

SVQ in MOV container

Quicktime Animation format in Mov container (this one's super dead and interactive features only work in ancient quicktime. Just curious what ffmpeg does with it with this setup)
 
I'm not sure if this is related, but I'm having trouble uploading some videos. For example, this clip (which I cut from a longer stream) gives the error: "The uploaded file was not a video as expected". Both clips share the same format, codec and play normally on VLC and Telegram.

Some videos still show up with what i assume is the old player instead of the new fancy one with the kiwifarms logo in the corner, Also i still see "no video with supported format and mime type found" on some videos , only on Firefox, chromium works fine.

Would it be possible to change double click to fullscreen like normal, maybe leave the double click fastforward/rewind for mobile?

Are you very sure they're actually the same codec and not just the same file extension? If I try to upload an AVI with a false MP4 extension (even though the video in the AVI container IS MP4 video) that same "Not a video" warning comes up. Obviously it is a video, and software like VLC will gladly play it but the site's content verification likely isn't very complex. Though now that it's passing through ffmpeg that could possibly be made more advance.
 
Very nice. The audio level is 100% at the start of every video, would be great if the level was stored through your session; even better if you could view and change the audio level before hitting play.
