Federating peertube videos
-
It would be nice if peertube videos could be moved into forum topics and display embedded. Either keeping a local copy, or embedding by linking could work. It can only be done by downloading and posting a new topic which works, but breaks the federated conversation.

- Peertube videos(from tilvids.com) don't start playing. In mastodon
and misskey, the hls fragments(~200kB) are fetched but in nodebb, it seems that the entire file is fetched
(~150MB) and so playback dosen't start. I tried with two different videos from tilvids.com and got the same result in both cases. - Can peertube videos be played only by searching or will they also play if a remote post from a peertube account (like thelinuxexperiment@tilvids.com )contains the video and that post comes in my feed?

Not sure why you're having issues with playback, but we don't stream piece by piece, it's just a video element playing the mp4 file.
When you search the video, that is the post that would come through your feed.
