Suggestion: Embed local videos and video captions

Hello,

I noticed that it is possible to embed local videos when adding my own site’s path as video URL. It gets embedded via iframe, however the video plays without problems. I would suggest making this a feature of the slider as well.

Another problem I noticed is that when the video URL is directly copied from Vimeo or YouTube, most of the times the playback doesn’t work because of the link being fetched is a wrong one. YouTube links that shall be embedded externally require the “/watch?v” to be replaced by “/embed/” in order for the video to play. Otherwise, the iframe cannot be loaded because it is restricted to be shown externally. This makes adding video slides to the carousel difficult for editors without coding experience.

Also, it would be useful to display video captions as well! The .carousel-caption div could still be shown, despite the video being added via an external (or local) link.

Thank you!
