           Summary: createObjectUrl not working with <video src> attribute
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://jsfiddle.net/bmcmahen/6zLaX/2/
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.8
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML DOM
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: ben.mcmahen at gmail.com


I'm attempting to load local video files and embedding them in my web application. To do this, I use the createObjectUrl() method on the file retrieved either from drag and drop, or from a file input. I then set the source of a  video element to that URL, with the intent that it would properly load the video into the DOM. And while this works in both Chrome and Firefox (the latest nightly builds, at least) it's not working in Safari. It doesn't report an error. It doesn't render anything. The video element remains blank, even though the source of that element is properly set to the blob. 

The example in the URL works in both Firefox and Chrome with the respectively supported file formats. I've attempted in Safari with a number of different video formats, including h264.
