Subject: [Xerte-dev] YouTube video page via HTML 5 - issue with related
content turned off

 

Hi all

I noticed an issue recently but didn't have time to test properly until now
and I have checked the HTML 5 code yet but thought I'd mention it in case
it's already a known issue...

 

That old joke about on YouTube never being more than a couple of clicks away
from a dog on a skateboard or something far more undesirable, especially in
a classroom, means that it's often preferable to un-tick the box that shows
related content when the video finishes. For instance at the end of the
Nottingham Xerte Online Toolkits video the following thumbnails and links
show:



 

Nothing too bad there but you get the point.

 

Anyway what I've noticed is that with HTML 5 playback with the related
videos turned off which adds ?rel=0 to the end of the link in the embed code
the video doesn't show and gives a message that the video can't be displayed
in a frame

 



 

It plays vine via the Flash player e.g.

So is this just some kind of string manipulation difference in the xerte
models or something else? I can have a look but I think you built the html 5
YouTube models John so have you noticed this?

 

Cheers

Ron
