I have an idea that nobody else has thought of yet… Embed the video into the project instead of uploading it to the Scratch servers! That will save TONS of space, and the video will still be stored on the original server!

Agreed. Granted, it does have some good uses to it, but if you want to make have videos, go on You Tube, while us programmers will stay here. I don't support. Sorry.

Great idea!

This would need a whole new video tab and would also need lots more servers. Also, people would just do videos and not program. Maybe if you could import them and it took the costumes out and the sound that would be OK.

when gf clicked
play sound [soundtrack v]
switch to costume [frame1 v]
forever
wait (framerate :: grey) secs
next costume
end

It is possible to get videos in Scratch - someone could even write a program which you input a video file in and the framerate of the video, and then it spit out a Scratch project that played the video!

Here's how you put them in Scratch:

1) Get a costume for each frame of the video.
2) Get the soundtrack for the video
3) Make the following script:

when gf clicked
play sound [soundtrack v]
switch to costume [frame1 v]
forever
wait (framerate :: grey) secs
next costume
end

Like if you wanted to make a video that shows how to use scratch, instead of asking the person to go to youtube and watch it, you could just make a project, upload the video onto the project and then make a script that plays the video?

Why can't you just use Scratch to teach Scratch?

Well, you upload the video to another site, then you could type the URL of the video into Scratch, then it would play without it being on the Scratch servers.

Oh, yeah. I guess that'd be cool but then again, people could just have a video that someone else made as the only thing in their project. I mean, they could give credit for it, but that doesn't seem exactly right. Then again, it could be classified as just showing other people what videos you like, but whoever made it isn't getting however much money they'd get if somebody watched it on Youtube or wherever, because you never know how many people are going to see that project.
