Research and look into

[edit]
  • Test for scenario where child wiki has tmh and the source wiki does not

? which source wiki will not have TMH? ‚don't know the relation between source and child wiki‚how do you create a child wiki (research)

  • Auto Source Selection based on embed size

*Thumbnails do not play properly. If you click on the play button, it starts, then it pauses...if you wait long enough it may finish buffering and play but stops in between. The audio and video does not sync properly.

*In thumbnail mode, The pause and play toggle button goes into an endless loop switching between the two as the video plays. this makes it very difficult to pause the video. If you miss the pause button and click on it a few times, you can't stop the video at all it will play until it finishes. (very annoying when you are trying to test and have to play it many many times)

*if you double click on the thumbnail it becomes full screen and after the video finishes playing, the play icon is displayed on the upper left corner rather than middle.

*While on full screen the menu bar at the bottom disappears after a few seconds (which is fine) but then it is hard to get it back. So, if you are a user who wants to scroll and move to the middle of the video, you are now caught in a loop between pause and play by clicking on the screen because you can't get the menu back by just hovering your mouse at the bottom of the screen.
