Why can't webms on this board have sound? You'd think that on a TELEVISION AND FILM board, of all places, webms we upload would have sound. Sound is a huge part of cinema, not just a supplement to it.

>>
Why would anything GOOD be allowed on this board.
>>
Because it is a SFW board.
But i do agree that we should have sound.
Trolling retards who surf 4chan on work or from school with porn sound in webm's should be allowed.
>>
>>84488183
If you want sound fuck off to reddit.

There is really no reason why webms should have sound.
>>
>>84488183
If moot had any sense he would just disable that shit. %99.99 of webms being posted are pure trash and have nothing to do with television and film/board subject. Also no need for gifs of some idiot reposing them to yous.

Ban mobile posting.

Remove porn boards.

>>84488234
a webm isn't a gif, anon, it's a video file

Say what?
>>
>>84488183
people here aren't mature enough to use webms with sound
>>

>Because it is a SFW board.

so is /wsg/ and it has sound
>>
>>84488183
It's a bandwidth thing, obviously. With Hiro pinching every penny (like deleting the extra image servers a few months back) you can sure as fuck bet it's never going to happen.
>>
>>84488337
You seem to be retarded.
Webm with sounds are only muted,
the sound isn't magically stripped prior to upload to a board.
The bandwidth is the same with or without sound, the only difference is that it is muted by default, and the file size limitation is the same as anywhere else bar 2 or 3 places.
>>
>>84488413
>>84488337
Even if the sound wasn't muted and just stripped off, there would be no considerable change in server load.

Well that depends on whether the webm had audio enabled from the start
If we ever did get audio here I'd suddenly have to replace a lot of them and boy would that be tiresome

>it's a bandwidth thing

then how come every other literalywho chan offspring has at least 12Mb file size limits?
>>
>>84488771
That's another thing; I'd love the size cap to be raised over getting sound
8 or even 12mb would make so much difference
>>
>>84488692
omg what hentai is this

because people would make a plugin and start making whole movie threads that would eat bandwidth

Still snug in his Mormon bed right now, but he gets up pretty early US time
You can always tell when the regulars are around, we have our trademark webms and posting styles

What's the worst that could happen? I can foresee ear-rape and loud shit, but just turn your volume down for that. Holy shit.

One day they'll have sound and I'll open a bunch of porn webms at full blast without realising.
>>
>>84488943
I'm serious when I say this. There's a lot less you can do with sound than you can do with images. The worst thing is really loud shit, or stuff that baits you into turning your volume up, only to blast you.

Do you honestly think that the average browser of this board doesn't use headphones?
>>
>>84488240
Couldn't agree more. Just disable webms altogether for the blue boards.
>>
>>84488976
>or stuff that baits you into turning your volume up
This
People seriously think there wouldn't be a load of troll webms of quiet movie scenes that suddenly switch to loud blacked porn
>>
>>84488183
Because you're an idiot. Just allow webm sound in the settings you cuck. Works fine for me.

>>84489056

An attempt was made
>>
>>84489035
Nothing wrong with that. That's at the same level of having troll webms of normal movies, and then suddenly switching to porn. And I sure see a lot of those on this board, oh wait...
>>
>>84488976
The point is people would immediately use it for trolling purposes so might as well just keep the sound muted.

>>84489056
And how the fuck do I do that, Mr Nerd?
>>
>>84489090
And? If it doesn't work, maybe it's because of your browser. What are you using? What type of pc do you have?

I have W7 (I know, I know I'm an old retarded fuck blah blah blah) and Firefox. I have sound on my /tv/ webm. You just have to unmute them when they start playing.
>>
It's an IMAGEBOARD not a SOUNDBOARD, cuck
>>
>>84489149
Settingd is at the bottom right of the page. Go to Image&Media and checkmark Un-Mute Webm Audio. Save settings.
>>
>>84489161
The board doesn't allow webms with sound to be uploaded. Stop bulshitting.

He's trolling you silly, you can't upload audio-enabled webms to /tv/ in the first place let alone listen to them.
>>

I have sound RIGHT NOW.

Maybe you need to change something in your browser settings as well for it to work, idk

>>84488413
>>84488525
There would be a significant increase in the amount of webms being posted
>>
>>84488771
Because they get like 5 posts a day?
>>
>>84489267
A lot of the webms have a hidden/embedded audio stream. Look, I don't know why but I do have sound on my webms on /tv/ right now. Not ALL of them, but I would say maybe 50% of them. Maybe it's just a bug or something, but it's real.

boards that allow uploading of webms with sound also have competent moderation
