• Uses the same video files we serve to the flash player: H.264 in mp4
• Uses the flexible box model. If you're a CSS guy, this is awesome.
• Uses history.pushState to change the URL in the address bar and your history without reloading the page
• You can save videos to a playlist

The future!

Pro Tips!

• In Chrome, shift + command + f makes the browser full screen. You can't do that in Safari and there's no programatic access it in any browser because of OS spoofing. 
• Use the spacebar to play/pause
• Start typing to search for something

Sorry Duder

Awesome sauce

I can get behind this. 
 
So is this available now?

If only comcast would give me the speeds i pay for, i have to DL the videos 90% of the time because awesome comcast likes to give me 1/10th of what i pay for and it makes everything buffer >.<

Looks beautiful! How exactly to I make it appear, though? I'm a subscriber using Chrome  and everything but I'm just getting the old player. Need I delete cookies or jump through some other hoop? 
 
Edit: Heh, or I could just click on that helpful link up top. Never mind. 

When will Mozilla ditch OGG and go with H.264. Come on Mike, please tell me there's hope.

works pretty good... dunno if this will replace the way I watch your videos (Playlist is a good idea though)

Pretty awesome stuff :)

" @Kierkegaard: Added a link. It's just /video/theater/ on any whiskey site. 
@wolf_blitzer85: Available NOW! I added a link. "

Is this just subscriber-only for now or is that permanent? 

No Firefox makes me sad. 
 
Still, tried it a bit in Chrome and it seems alright. Playlist is a fantastic idea, overall it's pretty slick, some kinks, but that's to be expected. Awesome stuff!

How do I choose Streaming/Progressive or the quality of the video?

H.264, huh? That sucks for Firefox and Opera users, though I guess that's more their fault rather than yours. :\ Oh well. Tested it out with Chrome on my netbook, and it runs surprisingly smooth when compared to the flash video on the site now (where even low quality streaming is unplayable). Seemed like the progress bar was messed up though, probably? because of the slowdown. Other than that, I really like the design of it, so kudos. Seems like a great addition to the site.

No chance what so ever of supporting Theora in the future, right? I guess I'll just have to cross my fingers that Opera will completely reverse their stance and implement H.264 support. Seems like it's the way of the future, what with YouTube and practically every other HTML5 video streaming website out there.

" Looks nice, but are there any benefits of using this between the normal video player?  "

This is awesome. Great job duders.

When I switch my Firefox user agent to Chrome, it tells me the video player done broke, which is expected since Firefox doesn't support H.264 natively. But when it's on the default user agent setting, it tells me my browser's incompatible then tells me it done broke. Is the second message supposed to happen? Shouldn't the video player have stopped trying or something? The fewer modal alert()s, the better.

Should I start using another browser? Been using Firefox for ages :o

Playlists for watching the endurance runs? "

Was wondering how Vinny was adding videos to a list!  I look forward to using this to complete my 100 list quest with the search function!     
 
Would it be possible to scroll through more than 2 pages of results?  Or is that by design to keep BW in check? 
 
I'm also having an issue with using the search, clicking on a video then being unable to use the search again without reloading the entire thing.  Still, an awesome thing to have.

" @LordAndrew: I'm not actually disabling anything based on your browser. So even if you use FireFox it will still try to play the video. The first alert is more of a warning. The second alert is an actual error from the video player. You can still get the second alert in Chrome or Safari if something bad happens. "

Loving the video player so far - really, really easy on the eyes and simple to use. 

Cool I guess... not going to switch browsers just for a silly video player though.

Looks cool. Needs a volume slider. 
 
Is there a way to choose quality?

Is there a way to change the quality, my internet's too slow to do whatever its doing now.

On a usability note, when I use command+shift+F to make the video go full screen in Chrome, it works but it also recognizes the press of the F key as me starting to search for something. I then have a X that pops up in the middle of the screen that I have to get rid of. Is there any way to have it ignore the F key if command and shift are also pressed at the same time?

So, where exactly is the volume control on the video? Couldn't find it earlier (also didn't look especially hard though so may have just missed it). 
 
Is there also a way to make it full screen without using command+shit+f? Like double click or an icon?

First thing first i have put all the ERs in Order in my saved videos....see you guys in 6 months

Great work! Really awesome stuff. 

 
A few comments from me: 

• The playlist popup is a bit frustrating. Would it be possible to have it disappear when the cursor leaves the screen, and only activate on hovering over the bottom third of the video or something?
• I could do with some feedback when I select a new playlist - as it takes a second to load, you're not immediately aware that your click has had any effect.
• I'm not sure if this is related to video implementation in the dev build of Chrome I'm using (9.0.597.10) but it seems to freezing quite consistently when switching between videos.
• Clicking the 'scroll' button on the playlist a few times when you're not at the start/end of the list causes it to 'overshoot' the end and display a blank page.  
  

This will be awesome

I cant view any of the videos, they won't load at all, i just get a popup that says "Try again or post a bug in the forums." I'm using Chromium  6.0.472.62 (59676)  on Ubuntu. 

Video playlists? I'm sold. Also it just looks better than the old video player.

So is this purely subscriber stuff or what?
