BUG - Profile Avatar Looks Terrible

Using Jamroom

New User SignUp via OneAll -
The user G+ automatic avatar image looks terrible:
SEE: https://www.screencast.com/t/sPPF3Xmu3Q6

Profile URL : https://softart.club/noah-balamucki

On any Mobile the avatar looks even worse than on desktop.

Bad looking images are a recurring issue we have in JR platform.
Please fix Ninja skin, so we can guarantee images look decent in all cases.

We did not request these daily reports, so we want to make sure how to disable them?
Also need to ensure that any future updates do not enable them again?

Video Poster Background Not Showing

Using Jamroom


As I said above, this takes about 1 minute to drop that same link into a WordPress page, and the video shows perfectly. As you can see this thread has been open for over two weeks now
--
We need simple method to get that URL Video into JR.
We need it embedded into "Profile Biography" field of profile.
Prefer not to code a custom module, for something this simple.
We tried iFrame - it looks terrible
--
How do I simply get that Video into JR platform ?

If I paste the same video link into a WordPress post, the Video shows fine, so I would assume the media Server(.blog) may have Open Graph (OG) Tags...
--
We need to fix soon, because the raw URL looks really bad
The URL shows here on the home page of our JR test site - profile domain - hosted on SoftArt:

Per your advice: URL Scan Module - installed today, but not working
--
Yes - URL Scanner sounds like what we need for public media. Since you feel the issue above is caused by security permissions, then we would need to use "public" media. In this case we do not host much public media on JR, since we mostly use JR hosting for "private" media.
--
- Media URL Scanner module Enabled and Activated
- "Expanded Media" - is checked in global config

However, we must be missing something,?
We paste the URL in the "Profile Biography" field of profile, but still just shows raw URL ?
--
Does URL Scanner work in Profile Bio field? What else could we be missing?

Video Poster Background Not Showing

Using Jamroom

We try to avoid "iframe" - if possible... If there is no other simple option, then when time allows, I can build a custom module to display the video using an alternate video player. Unfortunately I do not have much time for custom coding these days...
--
Example - in WordPress - this only would take a minute, Simply insert quick tag code like this is all it takes to embed external video: [https://mysite.com/myvideo.mp4]
--
Is there no simple built in JR Tag that can embed an external MP4 into the bio field?

Hi - If this is a privacy issue, that would be easier to fix than a profile domain issue
--
Question: If I host this Video on a different public server, how can I embed this video into the "bio" field of the profile?

Ahh - you make a very good point about possible caching issue. After we get caught up on some other coding, will test this out further with clearing cache on various devices / browsers...
--
I do hope this is not related to "profile domains", since at the moment, our JR platform model is based on the ability to continue to use the JR profile domain feature.

Status = Needs More Testing...

Our testing on Chrome/Android - shows the Video background image "correctly" both logged in as admin, and logged out as public user. We verified the Video image shows "correctly" on Chrome / Android mobile phone - as a logged out public user (no permissions)
--
So this reason above, does not match our initial testing results.
--
When time allows, will test more, but as of now, this issue is still not resolved.
--
My gut instinct says this issue may be related to the degrading "Profile Domain" restrictions. We have seen past funky bugs because of profile domains, and I think this current issue may be similar...

This Bug is quite strange, since the image shows fine using Chrome on some Androids, and PC:

This bug has been like this for weeks, if not months, there is nothing we can do to fix this, as it works fine on some devices.
--
So it seems from the last post, this Bug - where image fails to show - needs serious QA and testing on multiple devices and browsers to track it down...
--
Do you folks test on PC, or only on Mac? Is the JR Platform consistent and supported cross browser, across devices?
Or does JR platform only work on specific devices?
--
This reason above seems not to apply, since the video image shows and works fine on some devices.
--
Code = jrEmbed video : We simply uploaded a video into JR, embed into the profile, and we get this bug for the Video image
--
Bug is easy to replicate, simply test this site across ALL devices, video image fails to show on some devices / browsers, yet it shows correctly on others...
