Hi guys,<br>
<br>
I completely removed the native media Element in my installations because I also think it is a bit messy. I developed a simple Extension for handling HTML5 media (not released to TER yet, because of missing manual):<br>

<br>
Maybe parts of it can be integrated in the core?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

while working with 6.2-beta1 I really enjoy (almost) every part! Using<br>
FAL, Backend Layouts with gridelements plus extbase/fluid really gives<br>
us a nice and fast development approach! Big thx to all of you who make<br>
it possible!<br>
<br>
One glitch I recentlcy noticed however is the default Media-Element.<br>
Currently it is quite a pain to upload a video and have it render in a<br>
nice and modern way (native html5 where supported with flash fallback<br>
for those poor IE folks or FF/.mp4).<br>
<br>
It seems slightly adjusting the TS-Configuration as suggested by Stefan<br>
Galinski in <a href="http://forge.typo3.org/issues/38460" target="_blank">http://forge.typo3.org/issues/<u></u>38460</a> makes the flash-fallback<br>
with flowplayer work. (The default fallback with<br>
flashmedia/flvplayer.swf fails because for some reasons a not existant<br>
flashmedia/video.flv will be requested instead of the video file).<br>
<br>
Digging in the Code and Configuration it seems the media element still<br>
tries to cope with zillion of different ways to render the media<br>
(quicktime, videojs, flowplayer, youtube, html5 yes/no).<br>
<br>
Is anyone working on this area or willing to chip in some time?<br>

We identified that problem several times before, and I also find that<br>
it's a very ugly hacky code there in place.<br>
<br>
As I noted here:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://forge.typo3.org/issues/51042#note-4" target="_blank">http://forge.typo3.org/issues/<u></u>51042#note-4</a><br>
<br>
I would prefer to have a stable and hookable API in the Core so that<br>
extensions can hook into the video / audio rendering of the frontend in<br>
a unified way.<br>
<br>
We might then provide a simple rendering method by default (i.e.<br>
"mediaelement") for "out-of-the-box" experience, which could be disabled<br>
and replaced by some more modern variant in future (through TER). So<br>
that we are not stalled in time as soon as we release, because frontend<br>
techniques evolve very fast on that area.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
