Hi Charles, It was my understanding that video controls should be able to be added through style sheet mechanisms. Thus, there is no pre-set specification, but it is rather left to the web page designer. The javascript API will allow to hook up the controls with the video player. The controls could be overlayed over the video or added to any side of it or left out completely - just as the web page designer desires. Thus, they are outside the specification of the standard, IIUC. Regards, Silvia.

Does this include the additional area needed (if necessary) by the controls? It strikes me that it shouldn't, since it would be odd for the video width and height to change when non-video "decorators" are shown/hidden. > > I don't see a "standard" controls height and width, which is fine, but will there be read-only attributes for the width, height and position for controls? > > -- Charles > > >
