[Bug 8731] Consider expanding buffering control for media elements

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=8731





--- Comment #11 from Ian 'Hixie' Hickson <ian@hixie.ch>  2010-02-14 04:36:33 ---
Proposal based on reading the long mailing-list thread and all the comments on
this bug:

We drop the autobuffer and autoplay attributes and replace them with one
enumerated attribute called "loadhint", which takes the following values:

   loadhint=none*      -- load nothing
   loadhint=minimal*   -- load duration and size information only
   loadhint=autobuffer -- load at least enough to play through
   loadhint=autoplay   -- same as autoplay="" today

(* I don't especially like the values "none" and "minimal", if anyone has any
clearly better suggestions please let me know)

Any objections?
