Questions
My link will not play — why?
Most often the address points at a web page rather than the media itself. A link ending in .mp4 or .mp3 is a file and will play; a link to a page that contains a video is not. Some servers also refuse to serve their files to other websites, which no player can work around.
Why will MKV, AVI or FLV not play?
Browsers do not ship a Matroska demuxer at all, so an .mkv file will not play in Chrome, Firefox or Safari regardless of what is inside it. That is a limitation of the browsers themselves, which is why no website can play MKV. Converting to MP4 with H.264 video and AAC audio makes the same file play everywhere, and tools like HandBrake or VLC do it in a couple of clicks.
Does it download anything?
No. The player points your browser at the address you gave it and plays the stream directly. Nothing is copied to this server, and only the link and the title you type are stored.
Who can see the links I paste?
Anyone. Every link submitted is saved and can appear in the Trending list on this page, and the share link works for anybody who has it. Do not paste anything private, and do not paste anything you do not have the right to share.
Why does playback sometimes start muted?
Browsers block audio that starts on its own before you have interacted with the page. Where autoplay is refused the player simply waits for you to press play, rather than failing silently as it used to.
