Actually the buttons work, but only if you hit the top edge of the buttons.

confirmed. Are the controls supposed to be in the upper left, or is that another bug?

Ever confirmed: true
Yup the audio element is supposed to stay absolutely positioned in the top left corner and has a specific css size set; this has been a problem for awhile and seems to be related to some of the following: 1. Unnecessary audio loading animation above the element -- can't seem to turn this off or prevent it from breaking the size of the element from what I set via CSS. Would be nice if this could be removed or styled away as I do not want or need it and it just causes layout breaks. 2. Volume slider always goes up, if the volume slider was a bit smarter it would recognize it's going to go off the top of the screen and open in another direction instead. 3. Time position marker extends past the top as well, pushing outside of what I defined via CSS sizes. This marker should not be visible in my case; if it doesn't have room it should either extend down, hide or remain within the given size (or just put the audio time beside the bar instead like most media apps do). Thanks!
Beatdetektor sets the height of the audio element using CSS to be less than the height required to draw the controls, and this is messing up the controls rendering. I spoke with Charles on IRC, and he setup a copy of beatdetektor which doesn't set a CSS height, and the controls work in that example, see: http://cubicvr.org/CubicVR.js/bd3/BeatDetektor3HD_nocssheight.html Charles was setting the CSS height to try to stop the throbber from showing, which causes the audio element to resize. Ideally we'll replace the throbber on audio elements' controls with some other UI mechanism which doesn't require resizing the audio element when "throbbing", but that's a post FF4 thing... As discussed with Roc, this patch changes the audio and video elements' style so that their controls will be clipped to their CSS dimensions. When the throbber is showing, the bottom of the controlsframe will be clipped when the CSS height is insufficient.

Sometimes when the status overlay hides, we don't resize after it's faded out. There's already a work around in the controls to force a style resolution when we fade in, so we can move it to run when we fade out as well to ensure a media element is always the correct size after fade in or fade out.

Attached patch Patch: add reftest (deleted) — Splinter Review
Adds reftest which ensures video controls don't overflow outside of the css-specified dimensions. I pushed this to tryserver overnight, and it passed on all platforms.
Comment on attachment 485947 [details] [diff] [review] Patch: ensure controls resize correctly when status overlay hides and shows > if (fadeIn) { > element.setAttribute("hidden", false); >- // force style resolution, so that transition begins >- // when we remove the attribute. >- getComputedStyle(element, "").display; > element.removeAttribute("fadeout"); This unfortunately breaks the fade-in transition, instead of a fade they just blink in on mouseover... The style flush has to happen after we unhide it but _before_ the removeAttribute(). The obvious fix is to leave this bit as-is, and just add a flush in the |else| block. While you're here, just access |element.clientTop| instead of calling getComputedStyle()? That seems to be what we're using elsewhere for this kind of thing now. I just tested that on Win7, works fine (controls fade-in as before).

The controls are almost invisible now.
(In reply to comment #11) > The controls are almost invisible now. Note if the video controls have a CSS specified height which is smaller than the amount of space needed to show them, now they'll be clipped to the CSS specified height. Are they visible for you in http://cubicvr.org/CubicVR.js/bd3/BeatDetektor3HD_nocssheight.html ?
