Can this be done without the Club Categories App?

I'm all for it.
These days having video upload/stream options on our small niches is a must. Specially when we are trying to get away from the big corps. I know video is costly, but for small communities is not a big issue, because when your offer your members a friendly/trusty space to socialize, they pitch in. And you can always limit the size/time of the videos, similar to what Tik Tok does.
I really hope IPS seriously considers adding a native video application to the sw. 📹 🙏

Currently running a Wordpress site for our podcast that creates the rss feed for iTunes to pick up. The actual mp3's are hosting through a podcasting host so I won't be changing that. What I would like to find out if IPB can be capable to take over for the rss feed creation for podcasts? If not I would just keep the Wordpress and have IPB be the community aspect. Eventually I'm wanting to have everything under IPB and have different podcast shows set up as clubs within IPB.

I have asked @Adriano Faria to make a podcast manager, there's a lot of room for communities to deliver a podcast straight to their audience and it's a very popular feature for sites to have. I think once things get into a position whereby there's an app for this, it will fit the needs of quite a few on here.

A long shot I know, but I'd love to see the gallery become a truly video-friendly place. 
> Automatic thumbnail option (generated from midway point in video perhaps)
> Video compression options
> Inbuilt video player, rather than relying on users browser's video player. 
 
Would be willing to pay for anyone who developed these features too.

Invision offers a subscription-based spam filter, it would be convenient to have this additional feature without having to go through an external developer.

I 2nd this. Trying to stay away from the giants and get back to little niches. 🧐

If you don't like Google for privacy reasons which I totally understand, there's a reason why an IPS developer (under a pseudonym) released a captcha alternative into the IPS Marketplace.  

I want a plugin for a radio on my community
Anyone know someone good?

We've had this on our internal roadmap for a while, there isn't a set release or date, but it's something we do want to do.

Yup, basically this. Would like this to be part of the Invision package however, rather than having to pay extra for each QoL thing missed.

This deserves a bump.  I'd love to see a native Categories functionality for Clubs.  The very fact that they can be used for so many different things begs for this functionality!  All respect to thejackal's work (I have purchased several of his apps and am happy with them), IMO this is essential to have baked in to the native framework without having to pay a subscription/renewal fee (especially since according to one of thejackal's own posts the new framework seems to be creating issues for the third-party creation of categories).

Video Channels and live streaming will be nice! YT is not an option for me.

I recently came to the conclusion that we are too dependent on Youtube and other social networks. At some point, I used Youtube so much that I psychologically stopped noticing other sites. And so, I stopped using Youtube, started running my own website, started writing plugins for the game. But beyond that, I learned about many cool, incredibly useful sites and communities.
Stop using Youtube as a source of content, it stops your self-development.

1. I suggest this by the real community communications need. This is one of big element that make others platforms whatsapp, wechat, telegram etc.... Success. Try to fit the real human need that help us improve, innovative and maybe let us stay ahead of the game. 
2. It should be feature option for each website, because it mean storage cost. 
3. In other hand, if this feature implementation provide powerful to admin to give more valuable community services and products, I think most of us will believe that mean so many business opportunities. If admin get powerful tool to generate income serving to their community's members, the storage cost will not the problem. Unless admin think in their community service will not generate income as well, in this case the admin can decide disable this feature. 
4. In my case, this will a feature key that let me implement online education program to my community's members. 
Right now I have rumble talk, but it still doesn't work as well as I imagine if our IPS community have our own feature implemented. Rumbletalk
While I finish this post, I found this project, who know about it? www.mumble.info

If you want native video recording and hosting then IPS will also need to implement something like FFmpeg to handle transcoding. It's not so much of an issue for content that is captured directly into the community because the platform can encode it on the fly, but any uploaded videos will need a transcoding pass to make them suitable for cross platform usage on the web. Incidentally, XF supports FFmpeg and assuming you've installed FFmpeg on your XF server, issues a notice that the video is currently being prepared for use once the video is uploaded. I think it probably does the same for audio. It's a nice solution and works well, or at least it did when I last used it a couple of years ago.
Obviously going the YT or Vimeo route cuts out the transcoding and bit rate tuning requirement, but as @Malwarebytes points out, you are left with little to zero control over who sees what, unless you install a security trimmed, proxy streaming service that obfuscates the true location of the video being sent to the viewer. 
Despite the obvious issues in implementing this, we'd love to see native video handling and transcoding capability in IPS, especially security trimmed playlists that are protected by native IPS permissioning. If IPS has no immediate plans to consider this, then I'd suggest approaching someone like @onlyME who built the Videobox app, which he might consider enhancing to include AV capture and transcoding. I know he's busy at the moment, but might be tempted with the right offer. Count me in for a sizeable $contribution should anybody want to run with this idea, or something of a similar nature which delivers equivalent functionality.

That's already been supported for years now. I believe he wants to have some sort of built-in audio/video creation tool. To be hosted only on their site maybe? 
On your own site, with your own hosted video you can decide who sees it and who does not. Very little decision on who sees your stuff on YouTube
 

Use Youtube?

IPS is actively exploring options for video. There's no news to share (yet!).    
I'm personally a big fan of video and imagery as a growing form of communication for the future.  We invented text because it simply wasn't possible to replicate in-the-moment images that captured the entirety of the experience in the times of cavemen.  We needed to use sticks to draw representative pictographs.  We're now coming full circle. With cloud storage, cameras, smartphones, and instant photography available to the masses, our communication of the future will be richer, more full bodied, and all-encompassing.  Textual conversation in forums will always be the legacy focus of IPS, and I don't think that's going to change, but it's clear that a significant portion of online communication is moving away from text and towards voice and video, and it's not a trend that will reverse.     
 As others have astutely pointed out, IPS needs to explore options that can work across the range of communities and server hosting environments.
