Created attachment 10735 [details] Video does not play in Safari Video files are not playing in Safari. http://commons.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/File:Youth_media_2004_Prescott_Circus.ogv Use the above URL and click on the play button Expected result: The video should play Actual result: The screen goes black (screenshot attached)
Confirmed for me. On Mac OS X 10.7 something Safari: 5.1.7 (7534.57.2) : I get the video interface, can look at the details. When clicking the play button, browser freeze for a while and eventually got a black screen too. Runs fine with Firefox 12.0
Works for me in Safari 5.1.7 on OS X 10.7.4, with XiphQT components installed. If you don't have the XiphQT components, I think it's supposed to fall back to Cortado (the Java applet player), but it's possible that recent updates to Apple's Java are disabling that.
Tauhida / Hashar: Is this still a problem? (Sorry, no Safari around here.)
I got Safari Version 6.0 (7536.25) now. The video plays with a HTML5 <video> element apparently with webm. So might have been fixed :-)
Thanks. CLosing as there is indication that this is fixed.
