YouTube HTML 5 Video Player (Beta)

A quick look at YouTube's new html5 video player. It is still beta so features are still being added. Eventually, it is expected that this new video player will replace the sluggish and vulnerable flash player.

How did you get that cursor with flashing circle( while click)

@KoonerLive I was experimenting with Screenflow (a demo version I think) and playing with all the options when I made this video.

I have a 3DS and from tonight, 3DS owners will be able to go on the Internet with it. It has Flash memory, but not Flash Player. Do you think it'll be able to play html5 videos?

[reevesAstronomy]

@ChampionRevilo I doubt that the browser (or the memory of the device) will be up to it, but it's always worth a try.

Just one tiny problem, the screen lags, not the video, it takes a while for the screen to show when you change speeds.

Good commentary. Note your frequent rising inflection, usually an indicator of a question rather than a statement.

Keep at it... even if they don't subscribe! ;< )

some vidos are forcing me to watch them in that stupid laggy, buggy, ugly html5 player!

I'm also running with safari on my macbook pro and when i click the fullscreen button on HTML5 videos nothing happens. I left the trial and flash is back in action. Any thoughts on why it won't let me view videos in fullscreen?

@ChampionRevilo as far as I know the 3DS browser doesn't support Flash or HTML5, which is a shame. Hopefully a dedicated youtube app will come at some point...
