    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Cloud. Using Confluence Server? See the corresponding suggestion.

      The new File Preview does not support viewing video attachments e.g mp4, mov. Upon clicking on a link to video attachment, the dialog shows:

      We can't preview this file.
      You'll have to download the file to view it.

      At least, the feature should allow playing videos in the browser.

      Previously, clicking on a link to video attachment will play the video in the browser (handled via browser plug-in). The new behaviour forces the user to download the video file to view it.

      Alternative to this feature - use the Multimedia macro.
