Embedded Video Works Again

April 7, 2010 12:16:13.407

Apple applied some awesome to the web today, breaking every single embedded Quicktime video out there. It took me a bit to figure out that it wasn't something I did; there's a lively forum topic on this over at Apple.

I've applied the workaround (fortunately, I use an include file for the embedded library - otherwise, it would have been hundreds of posts to script an update to, and then undo once Apple came to their senses.

In the meantime, here's a question: doesn't anyone at Apple test? It wouldn't be hard; just bring up an embedded video and watch the broken behavior, across all browsers. Someone at Apple needs a severe slapping around.

Oh, and I have a timeline of what I was investigating over on my Cincom blog
