Is there some event that fires before video playback but after the tech has been chosen that allows me to check the used playback tech and then change the url accordingly in javascript?\r\n\r\nor maybe even simpler a video source tag/setting/option that is only used for flash tech?\r\n\r\nthanks."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/videojs/video.js/issues/comments/132770308","html_url":"https://github.com/videojs/video.js/issues/2493#issuecomment-132770308","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/videojs/video.js/issues/2493","id":132770308,"user":{"login":"obstler42","id":10549105,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/10549105?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/obstler42","html_url":"https://github.com/obstler42","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/obstler42/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/obstler42/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/obstler42/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/obstler42/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/obstler42/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/obstler42/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/obstler42/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/obstler42/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/obstler42/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-08-19T20:24:13Z","updated_at":"2015-08-19T20:24:13Z","body":"well, since I can set a different flash player (that supports pseudo streaming), I think this is of interest.\r\n\r\nI'm all for moving to native html5 video playback, but still want to provide a nice fallback solution..."}}
