618203 - Audio controls current playback position is sometimes clipped

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Video/Audio Controls, defect)

In bug 604885 we made the video controls have style "overflow: -moz-hidden-unscrollable", but this has caused controls for audio elements to sometimes resize to the exact size of the controlbar, which clips the timelabel at the top (cutting off the top half), and clips the volumeStack as well, meaning you can't adjust the volume at all, you can only mute it.

See attached screenshot, or testcase at URL (which is the testcase for bug 618039).

We should either:
1. Backout the change to make moz-hidden-unscrollable (which will regress bug 604885), or
2. somehow make the timelabel and volumeStack not clipped by the overflow handling, or
3. change the videocontrols so that the timelabel and volumeStack are entirely contained inside the controlbar.

I'm not sure what dolske's plans are for the video controls, but if we can't do either of the second two options for FF4, we should at least backout bug 604885.

Maybe we can move the -moz-hidden-unscrollable style down into the elements in the video controls.

UI is pretty broken in this case, since the numbers aren't readable. blocking+.

I backed out bug 604885 to fix this.
