Media Embedding turns a pasted link into a live embed inside 📝Rich Content — paste a URL on its own line and press Enter, and MythOS resolves it through Iframely into a native player or a preview card. It exists so sharing a video, track, or article doesn't require leaving the editor to grab an embed code. It's for anyone pulling outside media and links into a memo.
Key Capabilities
- Auto-embed on paste — paste a URL alone on a line and press Enter to embed it
- Native players — YouTube, Vimeo, Twitter/X, Spotify, Loom, CodePen, SoundCloud, and Airtable render as playable iframes
- Link preview cards — any URL Iframely can't play natively (news articles, blog posts, most other sites) renders as an Open Graph preview card instead
- Manual embed — the
/embedslash command accepts a raw iframe HTML snippet or an embed URL directly, for providers that need it - Consistent rendering — the same resolver backs both auto-embed and the manual
/embedpath
Getting Started
Paste any link on its own line and press Enter — MythOS embeds it automatically. If a provider isn't auto-detected but gives you an iframe embed code, use the /embed slash command instead.
FAQ
- What happens if a link can't be embedded as a player? It falls back to a link preview card built from the page's Open Graph metadata — still a rich preview, just not playable inline.
- Are Instagram and Facebook supported? No — both require external authentication MythOS doesn't support, so links to them render as a preview card rather than a live embed.
- Can I embed something not on the native list, like a podcast host? Yes, via
/embed— paste the iframe HTML the provider gives you, or a direct embed URL. - Does the embed size stay consistent after I save? Yes — height and width are captured and stored so the embed doesn't reflow on reload.
