"I was admiring the quality of their HTML5 video player"

Which reminds me of when YouTube spent forever with a broken beta HTML5 player, spending 5+ yrs building something that porn sites did immediately.



... and its still better at original, or so my friends tend to say


Isn't the "preview" function in timeline ripped straight off porno sites too ?


I mean, I'm pretty sure DVD players had it when FF/Rewinding first.


Older even! The industry term is "trick play" or "trick mode", although I'm not sure where the name comes from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_mode
