[Feature Request] Get YouTube video preview by link #107

Open Choochmeque opened 9 years ago

Choochmeque commented 9 years ago

It would be nice to retrieve YouTube video preview via link, stylized like YouTube videoplayer.

Example: Provided link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=t_77GeNEzFQ Preview image: https://img.youtube.com/vi/t_77GeNEzFQ/maxresdefault.jpg

P.S. Not sure about other popular services such as Twitter, FB and others.

I'm not sure about this feature. It's because telegram has a link preview feature on the API 29, our libqtelegram doesn't support it. We're API 25. On the other hand, I don't like official telegram link preview. I don't know what is the opinion of the users. What's your idea? Add these feature or waiting for libqtelegram-ae (api 29). @Sollex-21412 @ineptant

Even if it's added, it should be optional as many users don't like this feature in the official client.

Priority of this request is low. Let's wait for API 29. I think, it would be right. But anyway, we also could do two-way link preview, our and telegram. We have other high priority issues, such as two factor auth. Of course, preview has to be optional.

Yep! It's better to wait for now :)
