I share a lot of videos through emails. (Videos like Twitter, news articles, etc). I used to be able to simply copy and paste them into an email. Now, I have to copy and paste the 'picture' of the video, (see the photo attached) then copy and paste the URL separately, so the recipient can click on the URL (instead of just clicking on the PICTURE) to go to, and see, the video. IS THERE A SETTING CHANGE THAT CAN BE MADE to allow me to copy and paste a clickable video?

I have a similar problem in forwarding emails (from news sources) that have clickable videos IN THE ARTICLES - when simply forwarding the entire email - like sending the entire 'Gateway Pundit' email with articles and videos.

I know that Tbird doesn't make a link 'live' until it is send/emailed. But, when copying news articles that include videos, I get the text - BUT THE LINKABLE VIDEO is a blank 'rectangle', and I have to go back and copy the 'photo' of the video and insert it back into the copied article. IS THERE A WAY THAT I CAN SIMPLY SEND THE INTACT EMAIL WITH CLICKABLE VIDEOS?

Thanks!

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

You can't embed videos in messages that will play in TB, but if a picture is copied into the body, double-click it to show the Image Properties window, click the Link tab, then paste the URL into the box.
