* Prioritizing impelementation for 3.6 and 3.7:


'''Primary priorities:'''
Notes:
# Fullscreen mode implementation, with separate (but similar) UI
* According to the HTML5 spec, video can’t have visible controls by default (?)
# Error messages on the video, with text (what will we know about errors vs what can we
# For video that does not play on load, have play button in center & whole video clickable to play. For video that's paused, the same


'''Secondary priorities:'''
Priorities for 3.6
# Live video
 
# Small sizes (what disappears when) and audio-only
# Fullscreen mode implementation, including
# Ability to link directly to a time on the video (and possibly to load a page with a video within it at a point?)
* Larger, slightly different user interface
* Ability to enter and exist fullscreen while smoothly watching video
* Dao wrote patch - it was too slow & taken out?  What’s status?
 
# Better error messages on video, which provide easy to understand textual description of what happened & how to fix it
* Most is front-end controlled, so there’s 3-4 kinds of error
* Dolske is working with Boriss on this
* Need a list of what errors we can catch & what to tell & show the user in each case... codec vs. non
 
#Play button
* For video with autoplay off (and possibly poster off), have a play button in the center and have the whole video clickable to play
* If the user clicks anywhere on the screen while the video is playing, pause and show pause button in the center of the screen
 
#Poster attribute problem
*Poster attribute may not be displaying at the beginning of the video correctly
**Limi has a way to get around the spec**
Autobuffer.. if variable not set won’t load video.
Autoplay.. off by default.. can set to on if you want.
Poster.. <---
 
Bug fixes:
* Throbber should not display at the beginning of a video for less than three seconds
(++)
 
#Small size handling (what disappears when)
* For 3.6 make it not look bad at small sizes (what disappears when)
* For 3.7 handle small sizes very well (other panels popping up if room, etc)
* Needed: design work
 
#Audio only mode
* What’s needed?  UI work..dev
 
Priorities for 3.7
 
#Live video
#Ability to link to a direct time on the video (and possibly load a page with a video at a particular point?)


'''Current bugs/problems:'''
'''Current bugs/problems:'''
# Poster attribute may not be displaying at the beginning of the video correctly
# Default should be for video controls to be on (it’s in the spec)
# Default should be for video controls to be on
# Throbber should not display at the beginning of a video for less than three seconds
# Throbber should not display at the beginning of a video for less than three seconds
(look through current video bugs - prioritize some of those)
