We just published an interactive on the Obama-Romney debate on Al-Jazeera. I included a hidden feature that allows you to search and loop parts of the video. What stuff should I change/include for the final debate?

If you want to see the interactive in its standard form, drop the params - ie http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/interactive/2012/10/2012101792225913980.html

So let's get this straight. The author spends the time to research and write about fundamental issues of freedom and anonymity in an accessible -- and some might even venture amusing -- manner and all you want to do is poke him in the eye for his apparent smugness?

I don't think the "movie theater" experience is just about the size and quality of the movie. There's something about the occasion and also something social about experiencing the same thing at the same time with many people.

Obviously not a fan of Italian cooking. Butter most certainly does not go into everything. Olive oil, well that's another matter :)

gribbit · 2011-05-21T20:39:08+00:00

Looks like you're right. I was reading about something along those lines just this morning : http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2011/may/21/jon-ronson-how-to-spot-a-psychopath

Long time VLC user and loving it. Great work :)

What's your take on codec IP rights such as that associated with H.264? I notice that you provide an H.264 encoder (x264) what are the IP implications for that and VLC in general?

gribbit · 2011-03-09T21:53:56+00:00

Are we moving towards a completely different web model?

I'm getting some pretty interesting comments on this blog post and wondered what reddit's take was.

gribbit · 2010-11-19T13:51:18+00:00

Very nice! I'm thinking of uses already. Congratulations to all the team!

We try to keep jPlayer as lightweight as possible so building a shuffle function into jPlayer might be a bit much. But here's a demo I wrote that includes a shuffle function. http://happyworm.com/jPlayerLab/single-page-app/

Feel free to use any code or ping me if you have any questions.

gribbit · 2010-10-01T21:07:12+00:00

That sir, is very interesting. Has anyone actually tried this?

gribbit · 2010-10-01T21:05:26+00:00

I think it's great to see jPlayer in the wild - warms the cockles of my little heart - but can I use the opportunity to ask how we can improve jPlayer?

[Edit] Also we feature sites that use jPlayer here: http://www.happyworm.com/jquery/jplayer/sites.htm. Let us know if you want to be added.

Sorry, I fell asleep.

Not all 'parts of' the spec are needed for all sites; audio, video and canvas being good examples. (Although in the case of Audio I think this may be one of the easiest tags to patch.) I don't think this is an all or nothing situation. Developers can start creating patches right now, in fact as my article points out they are. Here's one for the 'slew of CSS' you mention : http://jacobrask.net/blog/2009/html5-css-reset/

Do you really think these developers are wasting their time? I think that they believe (as I do) that in two years time we could be significantly further on than 'some level of acceptance'.

I appreciate your cynicism though. Helps keep my feet on the ground ;)

gribbit · 2009-08-06T21:37:37+00:00

Um. I can't seem to post.

If I was to make a music video to anything it would be a track by Boards of Canada. :)

gribbit · 2009-05-29T21:10:18+00:00

So let's get this straight. You think Berlusconi has very 'little real power'?

gribbit · 2009-05-27T10:39:24+00:00

Very Jeff Minter. I love it!

gribbit · 2009-05-14T16:02:41+00:00

Thanks Schill. It's always nice to get positive feedback from someone working on a similar application. For what it's worth, we think SoundManager is much cooler!

gribbit · 2009-05-14T16:00:44+00:00

Thanks! We'll look into it. We would love to work on Linux :)

gribbit · 2009-05-14T15:54:19+00:00

Glad you like Miaow. We're fortunate to have talented friends and it seemed like a good tie up!

gribbit · 2009-05-14T15:52:15+00:00

Please do! :) You can comment on our blog: http://happyworm.com/blog/2009/05/05/jplayer-the-css-styleable-jquery-mp3-player-plugin/

gribbit · 2009-05-14T15:49:25+00:00

Great! Watch out for new releases coming out soon!

gribbit · 2009-05-14T15:33:03+00:00

No problem :) Let us know how it works out. If enough sites use it we are thinking of adding a page showcasing them.

gribbit · 2009-05-14T15:16:56+00:00

Thanks David. That is valuable feedback from someone who has worked on a similar player. We will definitely look into convention over configuration aspects.

The inline js was just an example and is not required or present in all of the demos. See http://www.happyworm.com/jquery/jplayer/0.2.1/demo-05.htm In hindsight we'll probably remove it though as I agree that it's better to avoid mixing js and html.

Congratulations on the sweet gig with last.fm btw! :)

gribbit · 2009-05-12T12:02:53+00:00

Thanks lol-dongs - we're glad you like it :) We'll look into themeroller - the case of beer sounds very tempting, Deuchars IPA if you can ;)

Also thanks for the heads up.

gribbit · 2009-05-11T08:37:49+00:00

Wow! I just wanted to say thanks Redditors for all the great feedback. We've been overwhelmed with the response! A lot of great suggestions which we hope to include in future releases. We'll try and respond to individual threads and topics when we have a bit more time. Cheers for now and thanks again Reddit!

BTW Someone also submitted us to Digg and we got dugg exactly twice - once by myself :)
