I was thinking of a cool idea of having some kind of script were you could have a TV playing a short 1 minute video. The video would have to be sent to Development (to make sure no inappropriate content is being sent in) and approved then once approved you could put the approved link in and you could use it in the game. This could make Roblox even more creative then it already is, just imagine if people could play a YouTube video showing a tutorial on something in game or just a little trailer for their other games. My Question: Can Roblox actually support that? Or is that just a dream.... If you agree make sure to let me know, if you disagree with this idea please reply why... I am interested.

I hope this isn't a miss.. this is something I thought about for a while now and just now thought it would be a good idea to share the idea.

It's a cool idea, but edgy kids could put videos that brake several rules.

Without this the best you can get is a bunch of decals and an audio.

@CodyDev you do realize I mentioned that in the post right? The video would have to be 120 seconds or under like music is and would have to be double checked by a moderator before it could be posted.

Kids posting bad videos is not a good argument because that can't happen, just like Decals get checked, just like Audio files get checked, the videos would get checked.

I don't get why people don't want this. It would make games SOOOO MUCH BETTER. I am working on a project right now that would benefit from it so much it isn't funny.

120 seconds so it can be moderated easily. That is why we can't have 5 minute audio uploads, moderators need to look at it before it passes through. I really don't get how this would be a bad idea. It would be approved, you need to put it on a brick, players can disable videos in settings so it doesn't auto play for people with slower internet.
