Not sure why some YouTube/Vimeo videos successfully play as HTML5 and some give the big INSTALL FLASH notice. Might actually install Flash.
Capsule, The Developer’s Code Journal
I’m very pleased today to announce the release of Capsule, the developer’s code journal. Capsule replaces the scratch document you have…
With YouTube at least, it was a revenue issue. No ads in the HTMl5 videos.
I understand that, but why do some play as HTML5 and some not? Happens on YouTube.com and embedded videos. Seems to have to do with how it is embedded/linked. Haven’t figured out the pattern yet.
@alexkingorg Did you check it’s not a SSL issue? I saw it happen once, though the error was something else.
The newer iframe embeds are best for detecting the browser abilities. Lots of the web doesn’t use this method yet.
@alexkingorg Flash is the path to the dark side. Flash leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.
