Overview Description

Webm, Gif and Flash Animation being apart and be able to order by playtime

Why would be useful?

First of all, the formacts are wildly different, WEBM requires a player that some cellphones dont have, and Flash is a inviable thing for Chrome users, being able to separete them make it easier to search for desired formats compatible with the device And for the time, Being able to tell apart a Webm of miliseconds from 20 or 30 minuts ones is a cool thing for people who wanna order it beyond short or long playtime tag [b]What wold be hit by the changes?[/b] Tagging system and ordernation parte, beyond score and rating

You can already utilize meta tags to search for the different file types:

Type:gif, type:webm, type:swf all work as expected. Play time ordering might be possible for webm files, if they aren't corrupted. But the computation of a single gif loop would likely be harder. For interactive flash files that would be entirely impossible as you'd have to figure out where the loop is, or somehow have a program determine how many loops there are and then add those up. Neither of those options sound feasible to be automated.

At least the Webm timer would be cool
