So I've been working on adding more embeddable content. My two requirements are:
1. It can't autoplay.
2. It can't autoplay.
I can't figure out how to get twitch videos not to autoplay (if you know the code to do this, please let me know).
Anyway, Vine videos are embeddable now. Find the identification code (a bunch of random letters) by clicking the "visit website" button and put that into [vine] tags.
Are there any other sites people want to see embedded? I'll look into it

I'd imagine that instagram video would be a thing people would be interested in?

hmm it seems like it autoplays without the sound on, which is at least better than twitch which starts up a whole big thing.

I think the only ones of those I haven't seen/can't get to work are card, test= and clock=
I think I've seen thumb- before anyway. (I also have no idea how to use chess, but that doesn't concern me as I'm aware it is used)

thumb's description is: Shrink image: [thumb=width (in px)]image location[/thumb]
test looks like it's also about resizing images
Clock's html is: [clock={IDENTIFIER}]{NUMBER1},{NUMBER2}[/clock]
and the html is: <span style="size:200%; border:4px double black">{NUMBER1}<img src="/wiki/images/8/88/Colon.png">{NUMBER2} {IDENTIFIER}</span>
Card is totally empty.

So the problem with the captions is that it's text. It's not just a link I can plug in. Remember it needs to grab all of the relevant information from something like:
or what not. To put it in the terms of the site it'd be [instagram]{SIMPLETEXT}[/instagram] but I'm not sure if that's sufficient. For example, the stuff you quote has a whole bunch of stuff about Taylor swift in it, and that's simply too much. That's the same problem I have with twitter's embed for that matter.

honestly though with instagram photos I wonder how helpful it really is to embed since most are posting the photo and you can simply grab the image url and post it as an [img]

ah, well. yeah the point of an instagram embed is to show the comment, likes, etc. info with it, with a way to like+comment from the embed box. that's pretty complicated soo yeah.
thanks anyway!

You need to be careful about adding more embedded content. Too much embedded content destroys the load speed of pages. Just go to a page that has 4+ youtube videos, even without them auto-playing it destroys my browser. You need to add another stipulation to them loading if you want to expand the supported sites and thus their use. I would suggest some sort of mouse-over or onscreen check before loading the embedded content.
Taking a break from the site.

What do you mean?
I've never noticed youtube videos slowing things down. By far the worst for me is occasionally someone embeds a ridiculously large gif or something, but that's just a standard [img] tag. If it's not autoplaying, do the videos slow things down to the extent of their whole video loading?
