           Summary: Stalled media elements don't stop deferring the load
                    event
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Media Elements
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

If a media element is stalled, or doesn't load without user interaction, the
media element should stop deferring the (window's) load event.

The spec does also say:
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/video.html#concept-media-load-resource

> "When a user agent decides to completely stall a download, e.g. if it is
> waiting until the user starts playback before downloading any further
> content, the element's delaying-the-load-event flag must be set to false."

There are a number of points we can stall that seem to be affected:

  • super early, after load start but before getting meta data (or any data if user required).
  • early, after meta data but before real data
