Video being stripped out

TinyMCE 4 (not the add-on)
Responsive Filemanager 9.8.1
NewsPublisher 2.0.2

I'm using the standalone version of TinyMCE 4 (ie, not the MODX add-on) and Responsive file manager on the front-end along with NewsPublisher. So far so good.

When inserting video (.webm, .ogg, .mov, .mp4 etc.) via the video insert dialog (this is a NP form) the Tiny preview renders the video as expected, but when the NP form is saved the video code is stripped out leaving an empty <p></p> in its place. It only seems to happen with video because embedded images work fine.

Has anyone else seen this before?

Are we talking about the html <video> tag?
Either NP or Tiny is stripping it on submit.
Disable Tiny, and test with NP alone to verify.

Correct, the <video> tag.

Even with Tiny disabled the video tag is being stripped.

Add the tag you want.

&allowedtags = `<p><br><a><i><em><b><strong><pre><table><th><td><tr><img><span><div><h1><h2><h3><h4><h5><font><ul><ol><li><dl><dt><dd><object><blockquote><code>`.

Need some more info here.

You pasted a valid video tag in NP like

<video width="320" height="240" controls>
  <source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
  <source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
  Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>

and it got stripped to this?

<video controls="controls" height="150" width="300"></video>

Yes, that's what happened, but I figured it out. I missed <source> in the NP allowed_tags.

Thanks @donshakespeare

Oh, and thanks again for recommending Responsive Filemanager. Such a great plugin.
