515820 - [WinCE] Quicktime videos spawn an empty window

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

Seen while running the latest nightly Win CE build.

STR:
1. Visit apple trailers site and try to view any trailer.
2. Receive an error - "Cannot open http://movies...

A small window spawns in the browser where the media would normally play which doesn't seem right since WMP is supposed to be the default player.

I tested the apple site using a regular FF build and the site works fine. about:plugins shows version 7.5.4.

I also see this in the error console: Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Security error"  code: "1000" nsresult: "0x805303e8 (NS_ERROR_DOM_SECURITY_ERR)"  location: "http://movies.apple.com/trailers/scripts/trailer.js Line: 459"]

Using the 20091016 drop and 20091105 build, I can get Apple trailers to play, but there is still an empty window in the UI that is spawned before the media player kicks in. The Error noted in Comment 1 perists.

WinCE/Windows Mobile support has been removed from the main build system, Spidermonkey, mobile installer, in-app updater and so on (see bug 614720, bug 554087 and all their dependants). Until such point where MS decide to release a Windows Phone 7 NDK and the decision is made to port to that platform, this is WONTFIX.
