DESCRIPTION
How to embed a video in markdown? Here the answer.
How often did you find yourself googling "How to embed a video in markdown?"
While its not possible to embed a video in markdown, the best and easiest way is to extract a frame from the video, add a layer with a play icon and link the video url on the image.
Speaking HTMLese, this is what you would do:
```html
<a href="{video-url}" title="Link Title"><img src="{image-url}" alt="Alternate Text" /></a>
```
that translates into markdown as:
```md
[]({video-url} "Link Title")
```
To speed up the process I developped this extension that will do it for you.
You just need to browse to the video and activate the extension, Video to markdown will do the magic for you!
