Description Jeff 2008-09-20 07:15:05 PDT
This may be a problem with the nytimes site but it is not a problem with Safari 3.1 or Firefox.
You cannot select other videos to play, and videos do not continue to play when one finishes. 
Sorry if this is not a Webkit problem.

here is the contents of the Error Console:

The description says that this is a regression, marking as such. I haven't attempted to verify.
Comment 2 Gavin Sherlock 2008-09-21 09:11:44 PDT
r31334 works, while r31344 does not, at least for video selection.  I don't see anything obvious (to me) in that set of check-ins though.  Needs git bisect or similar to determine the exact check-in that changed this behavior.
Comment 3 Adam Barth 2010-01-02 09:42:54 PST
These videos now work properly.  This report isn't really actionable any more.  :(
