Re: Display Video inside a Text field -Django Templates

Hi,

You will need to identify the video url in the post, then depending on
the url try do some processing, like getting the title or thumbnail
and render it back to your template. If you want to play the video,
you will need a video player. Eg. If it is a youtube link, then embed
the youtube player and use youtube api's if needed to render and load.
