Hi Metavid folks,
David with OpenCongress here - at Aphid's direction I'm posting a
small FlowPlayer related issue to the list. (Apologies if this is a
dupe in any way, I looked in the Jan. archives beforehand to check.)
I'm on Mac 10.5.6 using FF 3.0.5. Starting on this sample page on our
dev server ::
http://dev.opencongress.org/person/videos/400080_john_conyers
... playing the first video on the page, "Title: House proceeding
10-02-08 0:25:39 to 0:29:15", if a user drags the video playback
progress bar towards the center of the video (to skip ahead), the
video playback remains dimmed, as it is when FlowPlayer first loads a
video. This dimness obtains whether a user has started playing the
video & skips ahead, or not started playing the video & skips ahead.
Sound playback appears to be fine.
In Safari v.3.2.1, user is not allowed to grab the FlowPlayer progress
bar & skip ahead in video, at least we found that to be the case, it
just restarts the video
Ideal behavior for our users would be able to skip ahead in videos w/
no dimness & with the time to which they're skipped ahead displayed in
the regular FlowPlayer time section.
Hope this was a useful little report, certainly no biggie, hit me up
anytime for more deets, my contact info is below.
Thanks,
-David
