    This has been bothering me for awhile:

    Please Use Non-Flash Video Links for Mobile Posts.-img_20140406_124734.png

    That's what I see every time I check out a CB post with a Youtube video. Yes, I have flash off, so let's turn it on so I can watch the video. Maybe. Flash video has a tendency to play funny for me. Dropped audio, stuttering, running hot, etc. Not all the time, but I prefer to have it off.
    Oh, there's also this:

    Yay for super tiny video controls! /s
    Really annoying on my Q10.

    A better way is on iMore right now:

    Flash off, link has loaded ready to play!

    Unfortunate pause for Renee's facial expression, but still looks wonderful! Note the use of the built in video player controls. Easy to use, usually plays without issue.

    Oh, and here's the CB site from an iPhone:

    So, from what I see, the video links are only showing up this way for my Berry. Please change them.

    Looking into this. I'm pretty sure we ARE using the proper youtube embed links when we create the posts.

    Maybe there's something server side that's Fraking it up. Looking into it.
