Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1279493

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

[Jean-Yves Avenard [:jya]]

From http://w3c.github.io/media-source/index.html#mediasource-object-url
"A MediaSource object URL is a unique Blob URI [FILE-API] created by createObjectURL(). It is used to attach a MediaSource object to an HTMLMediaElement.

These URLs are the same as a Blob URI, except that anything in the definition of that feature that refers to File and Blob objects is hereby extended to also apply to MediaSource objects.

The origin of the MediaSource object URL is the effective script origin of the document that called createObjectURL()."

When createObjectURL is used with a mediasource, the URI created is prefixed with "mediasource", not "blob"

This cause the W3C test: http://w3c-test.org/media-source/URL-createObjectURL.html to fail as it tests if the URI properly starts with "blob"
via:
assert_true(url.match(/^blob:.+/) != null);

The fix is unfortunately slightly more complex than changing the MEDIASOURCEURI_SCHEME macro.
