Re: [Wikitech-l] Where exactly are the video and audio players at?
I'll be honest, I was thinking of this being part of wikicore; not just another extension. I think media support in core would be a good idea. TIA ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

[[mw:HTML5]] only really covers the use of HTML5 markup, not other HTML5 features. The idea was to discuss the benefits of changing our doctype from XHTML 1.0 Transitional to HTML5, from the standpoint of what features we want that would break validation in XHTML 1.0 Transitional. Cortado doesn't use HTML5 markup, it's JavaScript that inserts video elements into the DOM at runtime. The fact that the feature it uses happens to be in the HTML5 standard doesn't make much of a difference to anything, any more than does the fact that getElementsByClassName() happens to be in HTML5. [[mw:HTML5]] discusses the possibility of using or tags directly in the markup. This would allow our video or audio to play even in browsers that have JavaScript disabled, which would be nice to have. ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

Re: [Wikitech-l] Where exactly are the video and audio players at?
Actually, looking through OggHandler, I do think that developing a seperate entity may work well. I'm not quite sure what is wanted by the general public and would like to do what is wanted by the majority, not just wat would be easiest or even the best. What would be the best way to implement a HTML5 player in MediaWiki?

Thanks, would it be preferable to add HTML5 to that or make another extension purely for using /?

Hey all, I've been scanning the source and I can't find where the players are kept. Can anyone add any insight on this? Is it done as a hook or direct code? TIA - Joseph Roberts ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
