Details

Visiting http://people.mozilla.org/~hurley/video-site/preload_none.html in a dash-enabled build and clicking the play button appears to load and display the first frame of the video, but not continue playing. Seeking to a different point in the video starts playback at the point where I clicked. Once playback starts, I can seek to any point in the video just fine. It looks like the video is actually loading in the background, without any visual indication of it actually happening. Using the same video with preload="auto" works fine (replace preload_none.html in the URL with preload_auto.html)

I have a WIP patch not yet uploaded to bug 792935 that fixes this - part of several fixes to make DASH work with existing media mochitests. So, I'm marking this as dependent on that bug.

As per Bug 702122 Comment 10, DASH-WebM work in Firefox has been halted indefinitely. Marking this as wontfix.
