Google has just been releasing and attaching New Features for a while in other to make it more interesting for their users. Gmail recently increase the Incoming attachment to 50MB. Now they have giving you the ability to stream video attachment before downloading it.



I think this will be useful at least not all video attachment sent to your gmail you just download with access or seeing the content in the video.  Although The Gmail video attachment will show up as a small thumbnail with an image from one of the frames of the video file. Double clicking on it will open up a YouTube-style player that'll stream the video at optimal quality, and even allow you to adjust speeds, playback, and alter sound levels.

Before now, "Previously, in order to view a video attachment in Gmail, you would have to download it to your computer and open it with a media player. Starting today, when opening an email with video attachments, you will see a thumbnail of the video and have the ability to stream it, right from inside Gmail,"

 This feature is not yet available for mobile users but we hope to see it soonest On Mobile device. But For now, the video attachment is still limited to 50MB  so don't expect high quality videos. and this feature is only available to desktop users beginning from today.
