Hi

It would be nice if there are more video platforms recognised in Media Type dropdown, like Rumble.com, Bitchute.com, Odysee.com (which became more popular recently) and Facebook videos.
I know I can insert them in code tab by copy/pasting iFrame url but my clinets are not that tech savvy, especially when there is lots of text in editor and when they switch to code tab they just can't figure out where to put iFrame code.
If existing button "inserd media" could solve this problem for them, like it does for Youtube and others, it would be great.
Kind regards

Ryan
It's impossible to add all of them, or to keep up with the new and popular platforms, but I may be able to add a custom option, where you can specify any number URL values to check for, and the embed data can then be requested from the Oembed service - https://oembed.com.

This would require that the provider makes use of Oembed, and check the current provider list, it appears that Rumble.com and Odysee.com are available, but Bitchute.com is not - https://oembed.com/providers.json

I will look into this in the new year.

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.
