           Summary: QtWebKit::WebCore Win32 does not load HTML5 <video>
                    for Phonon DS9 backend
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://chaos.troll.no/~tavestbo/webkit/mediaelement/
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Media Elements
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: Nikola.Trajic at polycom.com


Loading embedded HTML5 video source by utilizing QtWebKit with enabled Phonon and Phonon-DS9 backend on Windows XP does not work.
Use http://chaos.troll.no/~tavestbo/webkit/mediaelement/ for testing the browser stack.

First  issue: deleting and recreating the player (when engine is assigned for the first time,based on the codec/con.type or installed_engine_list, it should not be recreated? Please verify validity of the below patch. 

Second issue: loading the video resource does not retrieve all the media content from the web server. On browser request HTTP GET /~tavestbo/webkit/mediaelement/transformers640.ogg - the web server is responding with one HTTP 200 OK,  instead of successive HTTP/1.1. 206 Partial Content retreivals untill all is retrieved, then HTTP 200 OK.

Qt browser: The test page http://chaos.troll.no/~tavestbo/webkit/mediaelement/  starts to load the transformers.ogg and gets HTTP/1.1 200 OK from the web server, video widget is constructed in the web page along with controls of playing/stop – with no video content loaded.
Comparing with Google's Chrome browser, it's evident that series of partial  downloads are not performed.

Expected result should be NETWORKSTATE == LOADING, READYSTATE=HAVE_ENOUGH_DATA. (PC Chrome Browser)
Instead, Qt browser (after talking to HTMLMediaElement,  and MediaObject and MediaPlayer at platform/graphics layer)
is starting with NETWORKSTATE==LOADING and READYSTATE==HAVE_METADATA on loadmetadata, and will migrate to READYSTATE== HAVE_NOTHING on loadstart event.

NOTE: MS Visual Studio 9 (2008), Windows SDK 6.1, DirectX 9.0c, Qt configured for multimedia, ssl, webkit, phonon, and phonon-backend. Support for codecs: ffdshaw, xiph.org\dshow for vorbis/ogg.
