Update from the latest nightly: playing back webm files with a straight <video> tag on my personal website (http://dorsal.tk) works now, as does preview and rendering the controls for webms on 4chan. Neither of those worked as of the date this ticket was opened. However, the 4chan webms report a 0 length and don't play, both embedded in a page and on their own tab. I suspect this has something to do with the way 4chan is serving webm files, and not playback format support in WebPositive itself.

The URL in your screenshot does not seem to work. I tried looking for webm files in 4chan/g but didn't find anything. Please provide link to a page where I can test this, not going to scrap the whole 4chan t try to find one :)

Ping, is this still a problem and do you have a test URL?

Bug report without URL to test with and no response in 2years is useless, closing. Please open one with link to a problematic page if you still have problems.
