AS someone that programs in R plyr is a major library for manipulating languages. It is one of the most popular libraries in use for R.<p><a href="https://github.com/hadley/plyr" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;hadley&#x2F;plyr</a>

This is really nice.<p>The only small suggestion I&#x27;d make from a usability standpoint: make volume adjustments as the slider is being dragged instead of waiting until `mouseup`. It&#x27;s always nicer to get immediate feedback when you&#x27;re changing volume levels.

Very clean looking.<p>I&#x27;m not so keen on the default &quot;start playing from the beginning&quot; icon though. To me, it looks too much like a &quot;loop&quot; toggle.<p>Also, it would be nice if the caption toggle had a visual on&#x2F;off look. Perhaps it could have a solid fill when turned on. This would make it easier to tell at a glance if captions are on when at a point in a video where there&#x27;s no dialogue.

IANAL and I am scared by licenses I don&#x27;t recognize. I pretty much bail as soon as I see the words &quot;all rights reserved&quot; regardless of what comes after it.<p>That said, this license is extremely short and for a tool that is clearly intended to be distributed. Is this essentially a CC attribution license? If so, why not just use that?<p><a href="https://github.com/Selz/plyr/blob/master/license.md" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Selz&#x2F;plyr&#x2F;blob&#x2F;master&#x2F;license.md</a>

Really nice. What I&#x27;m missing most is support for different bitrates&#x2F;resolutions of the same video. Right now everyone gets served the same file regardless of connection speed.

Will this support streaming - HLS and MPEG-DASH??

The current timecode updates very slowly and without any animation, it&#x27;s pretty janky. I recently implemented a HTML toolbar for Flash video playback and it&#x27;s perfectly fine to do 60fps updates on the scrub bar with RAF

The captions button isn&#x27;t modal, it doesn&#x27;t indicate if captions are on or off.<p>Accessibility-wise this isn&#x27;t very good. Heck, even from a usability standpoint: no tooltips if I don&#x27;t understand a button? Why? Those circular arrows might mean repeat (do they?), but all I know is clicking them restarts the music. If I hover, I&#x27;m not told what it should be doing. There aren&#x27;t even alt= attributes or titles somewhere for screen readers... except for a useless aria-label (&quot;undefined, Video demo&quot;).

Works really well on Firefox 31.5.0 on Slackware Linux. Cool! I usually experience a fair amount of trouble related to HTML5 video&#x2F;audio.

Would this work with Cordova Media files? Something like this is missing in Cordova&#x2F;Phonegap atm.

I love the hidden feature, the ability to mark and copy the subtitles :)
