1084564 - Pretty much all of our <video> reftests fail on Android

Status: NEW

(Core :: Audio/Video: Playback, defect)

Description

[Daniel Holbert [:dholbert]]

While working on bug 624647, I noticed that my reftests with <video src="something.webm"> fail on Android & B2G, with the <video> element just being blank.

It looks like this is a known issue -- nearly all the reftests in webm-video/reftest.list and ogg-video/reftest.list are marked as "skip-if(Android||B2G)" or "fails-if(Android||B2G)". But there's no bug filed to cover them.  (A few are labeled as "bug 773482", but that's a generic tracking bug for B2G failing reftests; not video-specific.)

I'm filing this bug to cover this <video> issue on B2G & Android, so that (a) I have a useful bug number to label my B2G/Android reftest-failures with (in my new tests), and (b) hopefully someone can come along, see what's going on, and fix this.

I pushed a patch to mention this bug number in webm-video/reftest.list & ogg-video/reftest.list:
  https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/mozilla-inbound/rev/9f2c5c03252b

I just mentioned the bug number once, at the top of the file, to avoid cluttering up the file too much (by e.g. adding it in a comment at the end of every single line).

I also removed these ^ few generic labels from these tests, in this cset.
