New Mediafront Player Having Views Playlist Issues in Chrome and Safari [#1854532]

I am using 7.x-2.0-rc3 with the latest version of Drupal. Playlists in views work great in Explorer and Firefox, but not so well in Chrome and Safari. The Playlists are erratic when clicked on, sometimes loading for minutes at a time, and full screen functions can also do strange things like pausing when going into or coming out of full-screen mode.

I am using the media field for video upload, not the file upload field. Would that matter? Or would and older version of Mediafront be more suitable?
You can see the issue here:

indiemusicchannels.tv Click on the first video, then click on the second one, then click on the first one, then click on the second one, and it will fail in chrome. The video will not load, or load minutes later. Full screen also has problems.

I assume you are in Windows OS? I just tried this on a Mac and they are behaving properly.

I am having this same problem in Chrome. Clicking on videos in the playlist will work sometimes, but eventually I will click a video in the playlist and all I see is the "marching ants" loading image and the video never loads. And yes, I am on a windows machine running Chrome. Thanks for any info or updates.

I face the same problem too. The console shows uncaught type errors and the message "Unable to post message to http://www.youtube.com. Recipient has origin https://www.youtube.com"

Mer23,

These errors are expected and would not cause a failure in the player to play youtube videos. I would like to get some input from the previous posters if they are still experiencing the same issues with the latest version.

The player now seems to be working fine for me with Chrome 24.0.1312.57 m on Windows 7. I have multiple videos on my play list and I can switch between them with no "marching ant" hangs.
