It would be great to be able to embed webms like this

Many upload sites (Ahem, Imgur) convert large gifs to webms by default.

Webm is a video format, not an image format. You can't use it with an <img> tag. There's no way for the site to do anything with that.
|
You could just directly allow webm embeds. Kinda like how you handle youtube embedding, with an iframe.
| |
YouTube embedding doesn't currently use an iframe; it uses an object container.
| |
I don't know if the site uses HTML5 but
So how do you embed video on a Web page using HTML5 syntax? It’s simple: | |
And youtube embeds should use the iframe container instead of object, its just begging to lose compatibility otherwise
| |
I can change it at some point. It shouldn't be horrible.
| |
Youtube embeds are literally just like http://youtube.com/v/
| |
gifv for life.
| |
"gifv" is just a webm
