If a script writes in a video the video controls are hidden on start and cannot be pulled up with the same error in bug 470852. In fact it throws as soon as it gets a mouseover and doesn't stop.

Testcase?

(In reply to comment #1) > Testcase? In the url.

Testcase WFM on a trunk nightly... Video starts loading, controls appear on mouseover, and clicking play makes it start.

Odd, I can confirm this on Vista, but it works fine on OSX.

(In reply to comment #4) > Odd, I can confirm this on Vista, but it works fine on OSX. That makes sense since I'm on Vista. Branch and trunk are somewhat different though, trunk gives me all the errors while branch just doesn't automatically (or ever for that matter) show them (note that this is not an autoplay video).(In reply to comment #3) > Testcase WFM on a trunk nightly...

fwiw this is the error I get on trunk: Error: Permission denied for <file://> to get property XULElement.style from <file://>. Source File: chrome://global/content/bindings/videocontrols.xml Line: 305 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.2a1pre) Gecko/20090219 Minefield/3.2a1pre

Really line 304, off by one? 303 if (this.fadingIn) 304 this.controlBar.style.visibility = "visible"; 305 },(In reply to comment #5) > (In reply to comment #4) > Even that seems wrong given that this is not an autoplay video, it should show > them from the start. It does, I was just saying they fade in and out as expected.

Well it's line 305 with my patch for bug 478982 because I add an extra line, sorry about that. I also get an error on line 323 with the same message.

The thumb and time do not update though, at least the video plays.

This is working nearly perfectly! Everything in this file works just fine, occasionally, though, when I use a javascript: url to replace a page with document.write it will fail. The url on this bug is a good testcase for that, but you have to _replace_ a page with it, not open a new tab with it (like bugzilla does). I'll open a new bug for that, this one is WFM.
