Gmail users will soon be able to enjoy a new feature which will allow them to watch video directly from their e-mail.
Η Google makes every effort to offer news characteristics σε όλες της τις υπηρεσίες και αυτή τη φορά ήταν η σειρά του email της εταιρείας. H τελευταία ενημέρωση επιτρέπει στους χρήστες να παρακολουθούν βίντεο μέσα από το Gmail, χρησιμοποιώντας την ίδια υποδομή streaming που διαθέτει το YouTube και το Google Drive.
The new feature will only work if you are sending small videos because, as everyone knows, Gmail only allows attachments up to 25MB. So imagine if the video is of high quality, 25MB is too small volume. However, larger files are automatically sent to Google Drive anyway, which means they can be transmitted regardless of whether or not Google Mail supports this feature.
The change obviously targets the smaller clips you want to share with your friends and family.
So today you will no longer need to download the attachment to see it, which can save you more time.
"Today, we are releasing an improvement in desktop with of Gmail users that makes previewing video attachments in Gmail much smoother and faster. Previously, in order to view a video attachment in Gmail, you had to download it to your computer and open it with a media player. Starting today, when you open an email with video attachments, you'll see a thumbnail of the video and have the ability to stream through Gmail," the post on blog of Google.
Changes may take up to two weeks to see in your Inbox.
