Description Jeremy Bicha 2017-02-06 12:24:57 UTC 
Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 Alpha
yelp 3.22.0-1ubuntu1
webkit2gtk 2.15.4-1

The embedded videos provided by gnome-getting-started-docs don't work with webkit 2.15 (unstable version to be released as 2.16 along with GNOME 3.24).

More specifically, I see the subtitles and the play menubar with the slider and the timestamp/time remaining but the video content is solid black. And if I let the video play to the end, clicking the X or pressing the Esc key to close the video player does nothing.

I tried rebuilding yelp against webkit 2.15 but that didn't make a difference.

This should probably be reported on bugzilla.webkit.org since something changed in WebKit.
