[09:07:26 CST(-0600)] <jhung> justin_o, michelled, cindyli, anastasiac - I've done some IE8 testing for video player and the experience is pretty poor for keyboard.
[09:07:38 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> 
[09:07:41 CST(-0600)] <jhung> Here are some of the issues:
[09:07:43 CST(-0600)] <jhung> - Keyboard scrubbing doesn't work (left and right doesn't move bar)
[09:07:43 CST(-0600)] <jhung> - Keyboard muting causes focus to bounce to the Transcript button
[09:07:43 CST(-0600)] <jhung> - Keyboard activating the the Video Player container doesn't play the video
[09:07:43 CST(-0600)] <jhung> - Activating invisible full-screen button would remove VP from tab order upon returning to normal view
[09:07:43 CST(-0600)] <jhung> - Frequently keyboard activating the video player container would open/close the UIO panel instead
[09:08:27 CST(-0600)] <jhung> All these issues add up to an experience that feels broken.
[09:08:33 CST(-0600)] <jhung> or at least very sloppy.
[09:10:46 CST(-0600)] <jhung> So I'm wondering what our options are? Do we hold back release to fix these issues? Release but state that keyboard for IE8 is somewhat broken? Or maybe drop IE8 all together?
[09:12:48 CST(-0600)] <jhung> I'm reposting because justin_o dropped from the channel.

[09:14:34 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> jhung, here's a question: why are you even able to activate the invisible full-screen button? If full-screen works, why is the button invisible, and if it doesn't work, why can you tab to it? (I guess that's more than one question)
[09:15:00 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> an yes, it sounds like it feels broken
[09:15:02 CST(-0600)] <jhung> It's in the tab order. 
[09:15:08 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> does full-screen work?
[09:15:12 CST(-0600)] <jessm> jhung: before we make a decision we should post this to list if it hasn't been already
[09:15:14 CST(-0600)] <jhung> No. It's broken.
[09:15:28 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> anastasiac: i think it's the flash object that is doing
[09:15:29 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> so it should be taken out of the tab order
[09:15:30 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> it
[09:16:01 CST(-0600)] <jhung> jessm: will do.
[09:16:29 CST(-0600)] <jhung> jessm: we won't decide anything currently. Just discussing.
[09:17:01 CST(-0600)] <jhung> anastasiac: yes. That should fix it. But the other issues?
[09:17:29 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> yeah, i don't know, that was just a question that struck me off the bat.
[09:17:42 CST(-0600)] <anastasiac> As a start, we should probably file JIRAs for each of these issues, if they're not already filed
[09:17:56 CST(-0600)] <jhung> Maybe someone else give it a run through IE8 and see if it's as bad as I think?
