Dan Romero on Warpcast

Dan Romero pfp

"I wish I could watch this 30+ minute video on Farcaster" 1. The work required to make video play in the background, not lose your spot, chapter markers, etc. is significant! 2. Farcaster doesn't penalize links in the algo -- so easy to link to a YouTube video (which has a boatload of nice features like automatic transcription, clipping, link to timestamp, download offline, watchlists, etc.) 3. Short videos in-feed, long videos in the better tools Similar to long cast vs. posting on @paragraph

Your reasoning makes sense, I think supporting YouTube embeds would also be a nice middle ground

I agree it’s demanding to do all this for native videos, which also will be super heavy if more than XX minutes… but maybe it could be done for Youtube videos similarly to how Telegram integrates them? So you wouldn’t leave Warpcast! PiP also would be nice to have

I mean, I'm literally listening to this in the background while I work right now. So, I appreciate the fact it's on youtube.

Give closed captions with the video or at least the option to do so (transcript style that runs with it) WIN WIN. Capturing all learning styles. At work and haven't watched but just wanted to share thoughts.

Honestly turning Farcaster into a video host sounds like a sidequest. Just an intuition :)

maybe it would be nice to display a bigger frame thumbnail when casting youtube videos? otherwise it's too small, the actual video thumbnail is cropped and it just makes it hard for people to desire to click it.

Watching a video that long on here seems unnecessary If Warpcast could support Picture in Picture, that would be great

I have to admit I didn’t watch any of the responses to your ama even though I am interested in the answers to the questions because I didn’t want to load up 30 videos and watch each one separately 😬 I will probably check out the full video of them all now (I missed that when you cast it)

You can upload any video of any length through Streamm.tv, and it will automatically appear on Warpcast. *If you run into any regulatory issues with video uploads, just blame it on us (we're in Europe🥂) @dwr.eth

Ok sure, but at least embed the YouTube videos in the cast instead of making people jump to a different app
