You guys have no idea how long I've been wanting to do this.

@Micca I can't see the video :(
@kamaredrache It's h.264 + aac in a mp4 container. Maybe something's up with your instance?
@Micca I tried opening the video directly, too, but no dice.
@kamaredrache Browser and OS?
@Micca Latest Firefox on Win10
@kamaredrache That should work fine. Weird. Does it let you download it?
@Micca Doesn't give me the option to

@kamaredrache @Micca

Broken for me on Safari on MacOS too

@Micca in chrome:

"Refused to load media from 'https://charr.engineer/system/media_attachments/files/112/133/447/850/533/159/original/d1ea78be3be3cada.mp4' because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "default-src 'none'". Note that 'media-src' was not explicitly set, so 'default-src' is used as a fallback."

@Micca I think it's made worse by >=4.2 mastodon instances having different file size limits than <4.1 instances, meaning that my instance refuses to download the video as it's bigger than 40MB.
If my instance managed to get the video just fine I wouldn't have had to browse the file manually ^^

Error fetching remote file: Mastodon::LengthValidationError

@Purple aha thanks. It's simple enough to re-encode for under 40 megs. I'll go ahead and do that shortly

@Micca fwiw I'm backporting the changes from 4.2 to 4.1 right now so the issue should likely be fixed on my instance in a bit :)

EDIT: Update, it's working!
