Hmm. How does this work for HTML5 video? My understanding that the AV 
grunt work for the browser was handed off to the QuickTime plugin. I 
guess I can answer my own question. Loading up an html5 video in youtube 
played just fine while Flash ones complained that I needed to install 
the plugin. Nice.

Re: Safari Behavior on the Mac vs IPhone

Hi, Kevin,

Do you know which players the site uses for media? If it uses strictly flash, 
it will not be very accessible on the Mac. You could possibly try going to the 
mobile version on your computer, which will most likely not contain flash.

Hi Teresa. 
I am confused about something here. You said Flash wasn't accessible. However, 
my church has been using Flash Player from Adobe, and it works fine under Lion, 
except my stupid Wi-Fi keeps cutting out, which is something I'll need to take 
up with A T and T. However, is that the same thing you are talking about?

Gigi

I should clarify. The player controls are not accessible, but flash can be 
played if it starts up when the player is first loaded.
