@abursuc Thanks. I have quality as a ranking factor. In the concrete case, though, it was outweighed by the image’s social signals.

@rtroncy Shaky because shot with my iPhone filming my screen :-)

@sympapadopoulos A crawler? Then your base isn’t the Web browser, but whatever language your server speaks… That’s probably a good thing :-)

@RubenVerborgh Mr. @rtroncy said he’d dig down in his archives to reconstruct the conversations that were had between the CSS & MF WGs.

@RubenVerborgh World-peace would be nice, too… I’m dramatizing, sorry. <video> is actually quite clever w/ just requesting needed parts.

via Echofon in reply to RubenVerborgh

@RubenVerborgh Sure, but as discussed off-Twitter w/ @rtroncy before, there is (close to) no server-side fragment creation. All client-side…

@sympapadopoulos It is. Check bit.ly/V6YTPE bit.ly/RNDh6O. It’s just not as exact as having non-streaming direct access.

@sympapadopoulos In HTML5 video, you don’t have access to low-level codec-specific things like keyframes. There’s no notion at all about it.

via Echofon in reply to sympap

@sympapadopoulos Wait, are you talking about <video>? Because I am. I have not worked w/ videos in Java, only a bit w/ FFmpeg.

via Echofon in reply to sympap

@sympapadopoulos There is no notion of frames, though, just time (w/o exactness guarantees). For events, check bit.ly/13TTFuH.

via Echofon in reply to sympap

@sympapadopoulos Supposing this is for <video>. Then keyframes no, fragments yes. Just seek to the position and wait for the “seeked” event.

via Echofon in reply to sympap

clipping supposed to work on all HTML elements, spatial on <img> & <video>. Also see my xywh.js: bit.ly/16r01NL

Great tutorial on #CSS masking & clipping: http://t.co/SprdzrOiGA. Confused b/o clipping vs. #MediaFragments relation. Can @rtroncy clarify?
