Live Video Preview

For a project I am working on we needed a live video preview. After trying to implement it in our project it was far easier and made more sense to do that here.

So this PR adds:

<.live_video_preview entry={@entry} />

• also added a basic test for both this new component as well as the existing live_img_preview

Since live_img_preview can be used for this purpose and is the exact same code wise, I'd prefer to wait until we have video-specific features that make sense. Thanks!

[drumusician]

hey Chris, thanks for looking at this. How would I use live_img_preview to generate a live video preview?

[drumusician]

To have an idea, this is what I'm aiming for:

[chrismccord]

Sorry, I thought the code comment was referring to both js and server, so the difference its he video tag. I know the some video file types for me work just fine with live_img_preview, but it may not be as comprehensive. Let me explore this one some more. Thanks!

[drumusician]

ok, yeah the Hook can be removed indeed. I'll push a new commit removing that part

[drumusician]

ok, another thought I am having concerning this is maybe we just need a <.live_preview /> or <.live_asset_preview /> component that is a bit smarter and can decide what to use for the preview based on the mimetype.

What do you think about that idea?
