Any chance this board can be set up to embed video?

Just picked up a Flip Mino HD camera to catch lots of boating action this summer without having to break out the big camera or shoot it on the still. It's quite the cool gadget and it would be great if we were able to embed video on the forum much in the way we do photos.

This board is not currently set up to embed video. While we can certainly link to any site hosting a video clip, my hope is that we would be able to post video clips directly to this board that are hosted elsewhere just as we are able to do with pictures. I'm asking if the capability can be added to the system that's in place.

That would be a nice feature. I like the ability to stay in the forum and not have to be linked out.

My father always says, "you get nothing if you don't ask."

Thanks!

Not exactly a supported feature, but I ran across a few mods that discuss the posting video:

Here are a couple of posts on hosting YouTube videos within phpbb:
