HTML5 video show/hide statistics/controls mix-up

Unread post by back2themoon » 2016-10-06, 16:18

When a video is right-clicked, "Show Statistics" initially works but after that there is no "Hide Statistics". It's still "Show Statistics" and it doesn't work. Sometimes the option will disappear altogether. Seems entangled with "Show/Hide Controls". Pressing Hide Controls for example, will make both Statistics and Controls disappear and won't work consistently.

Confirmed here and here (all ad/content-blocking must be disabled for this to play).

Typically.. You can't confirm your own bugs.. However, I can ;)

the only thing the error console tells me is..

Code: Select all

Timestamp: 10/6/2016 12:52:40 PM
Warning: ReferenceError: reference to undefined property this.videocontrols.randomID
Source File: chrome://global/content/bindings/videocontrols.xml
Line: 529
But the odd behavior is as OP says it is..

The issue exists regardless.. Odd we are getting different results in the console though..
