Hi Tobias, Sorry for taking a while to answer, but I was flat out busy. I'm the only JavaScript developer at my company now and getting over-loaded with work...
If I am to present this, I will make the material available online if my employer allows, which I'm sure they will. So, if you follow me on Twitter, you will know when and where things are. I will also post it on the mailing list. It's (funnily enough) just not working properly in Chrome yet and of course IE. I don't know if I will even bother with IE, because of different video codecs and licenses unless they decide to make their standards a bit more open. As soon as there's a live version of our stuff I will let you know. It was a proof of concept first but works quite well at least in Firefox.
