if a video element is already playing/loaded video from URL http://mysite.com/aaaaa.ogg and if we want play another file http://mysite.com/bbbbb.ogg we should do following JS code v = $('v1'); v.src = "http://mysite.com/bbbbb.ogg";; v.load(); v.play(); Why cant it be as simple as v = $('v1'); v.play("http://mysite.com/bbbbb.ogg";); Similarly for load v = $('v1'); v.load("http://mysite.com/bbbbb.ogg";); TIA
Since static markup uses the src attribute it needs to be supported via the DOM, so adding a parameter to load/play would only mean that there are several ways to do the same thing. I'm not sure replacing an already playing media resource is an important enough use case to make such a change to an already complex spec.
