Embeds update
Can we get some updates on embeds ?
1. Allow videos to be played inside an embed. We want to make video sharing much easier with our embeds. What if I wanted to put some additional information in the embed such as times watched (let's say for example, it's a video search bot.). What if my discord bot generates a random item but I want to add in an animation using Canvas ? I can't because it has to be sent from a message and not an embed.
2. Color text changes in embed. We want to be able to change the text color inside an embed. This would make discord bots with a lot of instructions or text easier to read and allow more creativity in terms of what you can do with a discord embed.
3. Allow pictures to be positioned to the left or right of fields. Sometimes, it just looks better to have the fields next to the picture instead of above it. This would allow more unique embeds.
4. Being able to edit button status without having to edit the message. It would be cool that the messages could stay the same and just edit the buttons. This would reduce redundant code and probably give some slack to the api since only a button update would be sent, not an entire message update.

Here’s a summary of the updates you’re interested in for Discord embeds:
- Video Playback in Embeds: Currently, Discord embeds do not support video playback directly within the embed. Videos have to be shared as attachments or links. To add features like tracking times watched or integrating animations using Canvas, you would need to handle these elements outside of embeds, possibly through interactive bot commands or web applications.
- Text Color Changes in Embeds: Discord embeds have limited styling capabilities. You can’t change the text color directly within an embed. However, you can use different embed fields, titles, and descriptions creatively to make your message stand out. For more extensive text formatting, consider using external tools or custom bots.
- Image Positioning: Currently, Discord embeds only support images above or below fields, not to the left or right. For more customized layouts, you’d need to use external hosting or create interactive web applications that can handle more complex layouts.
- Editing Button Status: As of now, updating button status requires editing the entire message. This can be done using Discord’s interaction and message APIs. Reducing redundant code and API usage is a good idea, but any improvements in this area would likely require changes to Discord's API, which may not be immediately feasible.
For specific feature requests, you might want to consider reaching out to Discord’s feedback channels or support to suggest these enhancements.
