If this really is fixed in Firefox 22 (released for Ubuntu 13.04 on 26th June 2013) or Firefox 23 we should mark this bug as "Fix Released". Does anyone object?
Also relevant is that Firefox 28 is now available in Ubuntu and it has support for HTML5 video and audio volume control. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1165649 Title: html5 video exits fullscreen mode when volume key is pressed Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When a html5 video is played in fullscreen mode, and I change volume, the unity volume indicator indicates change in volume, but the full screen mode is escaped in the browser. Example of html5 video to reproduce problem: <video width="320" height="240" controls> <source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4"> <source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg"> Your browser does not support the video tag. </video> This is accessible on http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_video_all, and make fullscreen by right clicking on the video. Now change volume using volume key on your multimedia keyboard. The fullscreen is escaped. This is also true when a youtube.com/html5 is enabled for html5. Then when playing most videos in full screen, if I change volume, the full screen mode escapes. This is extremely irritating as a video in a non- fullscreen mode plays at 360p quality, and when in full screen by default it does at 480p. Now, if I change volume by using its key on keyboard, it will shift to a non-fullscreen mode and change quality and start rebuffering. Please fix this.
