Did you ever find a solution for this?

Hi Giacomo!

I added the following line to my themes functions.php:

/* Stop WordPress from auto embeds */
remove_filter( ‘the_content’, array( $GLOBALS[‘wp_embed’], ‘autoembed’ ), 8 );

…and then composed a new Buddypress Private Message with http://www.mysite.com/blah.mp4 as the text.

Now it shows

instead of the actual text. It’s still trying to wrap it, but at least not autoplay now.
