okay, you commented on the mp4 version. that's where i got confused with the convo with The Fishcake. i uploaded 2 versions and asked on the mkv version if amethyst users could see it and you commented on the mpv version. @vrod are you able to see the video on this thread?

Damus and Amethyst do quoted notes differently it seems, so we are both right and wrong. The point is, MKV is not what you should ever use for streaming distribution of media. It is not designed for that. MP4 is what you want, and should use 🐶🐾🫡

no. this is the mkv thread the mp4 version is here (see the comments?) nostr:nevent1qqs9yrulxpk8xtczf0yqncxlxlsnrrsdg5hdcwtvjxv0mk5jjat4qzqprfmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujummjv9hxwetsd9kxctnyv4mqygzwhzp3p445ak2ud4n289dn6084txu9ltkg7a53mt75qk5jup2ad5psgqqqqqqs4y5qzj

NO! This is a copy of the text of your quoted message ! Thread is irrelevant if you post a quote, and that’s what I would refer to in my reply. 🐶🐾🫡 I added <don’t_render> in there so you can see the text. “”” jeremy allen white is so hot 🥵 #nostrafterdark https://video.nostr.build/882ea643b84e47b834f38d2393ae04c5435ea06b95a49982dc3a1c4a9f56ccf8.%3Cdon%E2%80%99t_render%3Emp4#m=video%2Fmp4&dim=960x544&blurhash=i69HwwuP3F%3BJ%7D%2BGH9b-P-%3A00M%7C%252Rn9%7CnN%3DvNzENx%40j%3FnhxYSOR%2Bwvt6NdtRNHM%7Coes%2CR%2CS5RknhRPt6tQe.adt7kCRjoJ&x=a42434b4e37faf2ab3fa76fc191793d1a11dd49a7dca031c79b8ad7783756336 “””

same. thanks for going on this journey. so weird. @jb55 @Vitor Pamplona why is this happening? on #amethyst i see no comments from The Fishcake or Dan on the mp4 version of this upload (only 5 comments). both of their comments are showing on the mkv version upload for me. The Fishcake see's their comments on the mp4 upload. any ideas as to where this is getting messed up?

so appreciate @The Fishcake🐶🐾 for going on a very confusing #nostr client troubleshooting journey with me...and to @tyiu for providing the insight, all within a few minutes at that. love this place and the people are pretty alright too 😉 nostr:nevent1qqs04e68c523lekt4rguqlgq4g4rxhrhh3ldsx24gp955lq80s8z0qgpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqzyqnhnu7e7sk8mmsh7rnteh8cn28e6kfdr83mrw7j0mcullg607vdzqcyqqqqqqgatl95p

Technically it is “sort of” supported by the container, but it is not suitable for social network and this use. Not many clients support it too! Here is the citation and the link 🐶🐾🫡 https://matroska.org/technical/streaming.html Matroska Streaming In Matroska, there are two kinds of streaming: file access and livestreaming. File Access File access can simply be reading a file located on your computer, but also includes accessing a file from an HTTP (web) server or CIFS (Windows share) server. These protocols are usually safe from reading errors and seeking in the stream is possible. “””However, when a file is stored far away or on a slow server, seeking can be an expensive operation and should be avoided. “””The following guidelines, when followed, help reduce the number of seeking operations for regular playback and also have the playback start quickly without a lot of data needed to read first (like a Cues Element, Attachment Element or SeekHead Element). Matroska, having a small overhead, is well suited for storing music/videos on file servers without a big impact on the bandwidth used. Matroska does not require the index to be loaded before playing, which allows playback to start very quickly. The index can be loaded only when seeking is requested the first time. …
