Hello,

I am using myBB 1.6.12
Is it possible to add a .mp4 or .ogg video to a post?

in HTML 5 it's possible by the <video> tags
for example:
<video src="video/myvideo.ogg" width="512" height="288" poster="video/titel-image.jpg" controls>

Is this some how possible in the myBB Board?

I don't like to upload the video to Youtube, I like to store it on my server and then add it to a post.
I think you will have to create some kind of player first to play your video files: http://mods.mybb.com/view/mybb-yahoo-webplayer

Your link is for a yahoo-webplayer, to play videos from yahoo. It's the same like Youtube.

I looking for a possibillity to add videos to a post, in a HTML5 Tag, without any video streaming service.
The code block there plays a video in any new browser that can handle HTML 5, without a streaming server and without any player or without flash.

See the HTML 5 code block in my first posting.
