 * Hey Ulrich – good to see you are co-author of this plugin. I have revisited the
   plugin and like what I see.
 * I tested it out using a mp4 video file only and the plugin seems to be working
   well on Firefox Version 20.0, Opera Version 12.14 (1738) & 12.15 (build 1748),
   Safari Version 5.1.9 (6534.59.8) & Chrome Version 26.0.1410.65 – running Mac 
   OSX 10.6.8.
 * I did noticed some strange behaviour though (Chrome & Safari) – if I right click
   on the progress bar the play head moves to this point and then when I release
   mouse button, the playhead scrolls forward or backward when I move the mouse 
   left or right! Is this normal? This only happens the first time and subsequent
   right clicks on the progress bar will move the playhead to that point but scrolling
   does not occur.
 * Also I noticed if I don’t add a splash image, when the player loads on Firefox
   I can see the progress bar but no first frame image appears….
 * Load time is much slower than VideoJS wordpress plugin too.
 * I would like to be able to CSS my own skin for the player, is this available 
   yet? If not, do you think this will be available in future updates?
 * Thanks for your efforts with this plugin – seems like we are getting close to
   a complete solution for self-hosted videos. Future development I would like to
   see is for the plugin to do its own transcoding so all you need to do is upload
   one video file and it generates the other types necessary for cross-browser compatibility.
   Flash fall-back must be ready to die….. 😉

 * Hey [@adam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adam/), would you be so kind 
   and offer some advice on how one would go about using ACF with this plug-in so
   shortcodes would no longer be needed. I have very good technical skills but limited
   php knowledge. I would love to be able to add a video from my media library or
   upload a new video directly into a post or page utilising the videojs plugin 
   without having to use shortcodes. Much appreciated.

 * Agreed. Has anyone stumbled across a solution akin to shawn00m’s suggestion:

 * Have you tried placing the CSS inside the WP GOOGLE FONTS Custom CSS (optional)
   box? This works for me.

 * Thank you for your time. New 3.5 Multisite install it is….
    Have you heard any
   issues with the new file structure regarding streaming media to different browsers
   and mobile devices?

 * Okay, great news. I started on an earlier version of multisite and yes, I would
   love to dumb ms-files… BUT although I appreciate your detailed effort explaining
   step-by-step how one can do this for themselves, I’ve been wasting too much time
   with multisite lately and cannot justify the effort right now. I have not yet
   searched this but I thought I should ask you while we are at it, how difficult
   is it to create a fresh install of multisite 3.5 and then transfer my 6 blogs
   across? And I guess more importantly, my main challenges with multisite have 
   been finding decent themes that work well with WPMS, streaming media on multiple
   browsers & smart tablets/phones and resizing/displaying images (timthumb.php)
   simply because of how files are stored and retrieved in multisite. Does the new
   multisite still have these issues to your knowledge? Are files stored and retrieved
   more sanely now? Thanks so much for your expertise.

 * Hey Michael,
 * Did you find an answer for your question? I am having trouble with gradients 
   in internet explorer and have found a fix (see below) but SafeCSS strips out 
   the -ms-filter & zoom lines.
 *     ```
       background:none;
       -ms-filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr=#26ffffff,endColorstr=#26ffffff);
       filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr=#26ffffff,endColorstr=#26ffffff);
       zoom: 1;
       ```
   
 * Any help would be appreciated.
 * Thanks
