GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 673545
Embedded Youtube videos automatically start playing
Last modified: 2012-04-10 07:18:58 UTC
Visit pitivi.org and the embedded video on the main page will start playing, with some sort of embedded version of Totem. Other browsers (Firefox, Chromium) wait until the user clicks the Play button (and avoid wasting bandwidth or taking the user by surprise). This might have something to do with the fact that it is some sort of "object" that points to an iframe and that it seems totem gets used to play the video. Bug #673544 might also be caused by this?
Works fine for me. Do you have youtube html5 disabled? Can you provide more information regarding the totem plugin you have? I bet this is a bug in totem's plugin.
Yes, I did not enable youtube.com/html5, yet I do not have flashplayer installed either...
But you do have the totem plugin! =)
