Don't you need HTML to do that? It would be neat for sure, but do we really need it? We could just link to the media's page.

It's easier and better looking. Watching a stunt movie in GTAs forum is much better than waiting for 30 min to download.

it meens "[G]oogle t"

and whoever complained about bandwith/overloading the servers

the videos are still hosted off youtube, so we'd be leaching off their site, just the same as if we were watching the vidoes on youtube itself

i think whole stunt videos should still be downloaded to watch, i  mean i guess it woulod be cool to watch them here but it wouldnt be necessary..

But for GTASL and the Pwnage game and other stunt challenges, it is extremely annoying to have to download a clip (or  a rep) and then watch it, when it can just be youtubed or putfiled and posted here... although i dont see why a link to youtube isnt enough...

Clicking a thread and pressing Play Button is much easier than Clicking a link and waiting to open it or download the video.

So:
Streaming Code > Clicking a link to video streaming site > Downloading a video


Btw..Valikai or any other Admin and Mod, How long do we need to wait for results?

No, not needed IMO. I think we should give priority to other stuff instead.
