CEDIA 2006 video

Hey guys,

I love the vid on the front page, but I tend to visit HTF more than once a day, so I'd rather it didn't start playing automatically every time I load up. Possible to fix?

Philip:

Are you using Firefox by chance? It is set to no autoplay but for some reason Firefox ignores this and plays it anyway. It doesn't autoload in IE.

It also autoplays in Safari. Please make it stop.

Re: CEDIA 2006 video

i'm with you on that. the worst part is that it seems to feel the necessity to play every time you come back to the page after viewing one of the forums. it wouldn't be so bad if that wasn't the case!

Parker,

Can you rewrite the program so that we can manually stop it. Right now the only way to stop this is to permanently block it using Adblock...

Hi Parker,

Yes, I'm using Firefox. It should be possible to filter out the "non-compliant" browsers and provide a link for those users in place of the vid, no?

Either that or I'm gonna have to train myself to only visit the HTF once a day (and that won't be fun, lol)

Gentleman,

Parker has been able to fix the code that affected Mozilla
browsers.

The video should nop longer auto-play.

We thank you for your patience throughout this ordeal.

Re: CEDIA 2006 video

Unfortunately, the videos on the video page are all broken. I wondered why my inline player wouldn't play, so I tried launching the external player, and got broken links.

Greg,

We have a very limited amount of time to get our videos
uploaded and coded. We ran into problems last evening
getting the videos to play. Since it was rather late, we
decided to work further on them this morning.

They should be working later this morning. Thanks!

Re: CEDIA 2006 video

I'm not sure if this is related or not but ...
Clicking on any one of the forum categories causes my firefox browser to hang. Works OK in IE. This happens on both my laptop and desktop systems.
I'm using Firefox 1.5.0.7
Seems co-incidental to stopping the video auto-play.
