Youtube embed should fall back on HTML5 player
« on: April 13, 2015, 07:10:07 pm »
I have Flash disabled on this machine. I can usually watch Youtube videos on sites that use the HTML5 embed but FQA doesn't do that.

Is it a simple fix?

EDIT: Here's what I get in the source for FQA's embed:
Code: [Select]
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/[VIDEO TAG]&amp;rel=1&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="never" wmode="transparent" width="425px" height="350px"><noembed><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=[VIDEO TAG]" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=[VIDEO TAG]</a></noembed></embed>
An example of the HTML5 embed from another site:
Code: [Select]
<iframe width="425" height="350" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/[VIDEO TAG]" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Consumption is not a politically combative act — refraining from consumption even less so.
