114165 2013-04-08 05:30:49 -0700 [Qt] YouTube HTML5 video player keeps loading video even if the tab is closed 2013-05-17 08:09:44 -0700 1 1 1 Unclassified WebKit Media 528+ (Nightly build) All Linux RESOLVED DUPLICATE 109350 P2 Normal --- 88186 0 jingdow webkit-unassigned allan.jensen pnormand oldest_to_newest 870714 0 jingdow 2013-04-08 05:30:49 -0700 The issue is quite simple to reproduce: open your qtwebkit browser (QupZilla, Arora, Rekonq, Konqueror, doesn't matter), load some longer video from YouTube (but previously configure YouTube for HTML5: www.youtube.com/html5) and close the tab. Watch your network activity and you will notice the video continues to load in background until it is fully loaded or until you quit your browser. I haven't able to reproduce this with Qt5. carewolf on IRC suspects it might have something to do with gstreamer in webkit. 871506 1 jingdow 2013-04-09 00:03:30 -0700 Another example page where this happens is here: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/b8/archive/2012/07/23/hardware-accelerating-everything-windows-8-graphics.aspx 888166 2 pnormand 2013-05-13 03:11:01 -0700 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 109350 *** 890388 3 allan.jensen 2013-05-17 08:09:44 -0700 Possible work-around: Call setHtml("") before closing the tab.
