Feedback Stop downloading all video attachments on page to create thumbnails

[masagrator]

I have found out recently on my Android phone using Google Chrome that it seems like site forces browser to download all video attachments, so it can create thumbnails. We are talking even about hundreds of MB on one page. Which is bad for both servers and mobile data users.

Example of such page:

Support. My cellular data is $20/mo for a 8GB package with an optional extra 5GB if you log in to the app. If I wanted to pay $20/mo for usage of GBATemp, I would pay for GBATemp Premium.

This should now be resolved.

Unfortunately video thumbnails won't be shown on the page anymore but this is a limitation of our forum software.

Yes, it's ok now. Thanks.
