Hi,
I´m working on something very similiar, called
jMediaelement. Also HTML5, also jQuery UI and Themeroller...
The design isn´t that polished, but uses flash (jwplayer) and vlc as fallback plugins. (there are some known issues with vlc, but jwplayer support is good)
I have made some simple
demos and some
getting started information.
The project has also a11y in mind:
- keyboard shortcuts firefox-style (but not added to the version control/demos, yet)
-
caption/subtitle plugin with timerange-event addon (logic only, you have to write the UI your own)
- we are currently using also an wai-aria enhanced ui.slider (ui 1.8beta) extension (about 1kb), wich can be also
plugged into the timeline- and volume-slider (i can make the code accessible).
i also want to cover the codec problem, by adding support for cortado (java applet) and nuantis highgate media suite (silverlight). but, by now the cortado player has too much issues (the guys from xiph are working on cortado, to make it better) and the media suite isn´t officially released.
currently, i wanted to try, to add nicer demos and some more documentation. help/forking is always appreciated.
