Which version of Safari are you on? I just tried it on mine and it was fine (5.0.3).

I'm assuming that you're being shown that menu because you right-clicked to play the video. You're allowed to save the video file if you wish.

Are you embedding another site's player or is the video player hosted in nolanfans.com while the content comes from somewhere else? If that's the case, then I can understand a bit of a pause. I'd suggest that if the content is coming elsewhere that the player shouldn't have to ping nolanfans.com anymore and go directly to the content provider.

EDIT:
Poked around on the video. I see what you're doing. Very nifty... but it still pauses quite a bit. I've tried the mp4 link you embedded on the page and it loads up in a snap. So, I'm inclined to think something is snagging the page. Most likely javascript...
Hrm. The video player is the native HTML5 player with the help of some JavaScript and CSS. It's hosted on the nolanfans.com domain. I'll have to run a few tests to determine the cause of this slowness issue. I might need your help testing new videos. ;)

I hit play and it does nothing. I left it open in a tab for probably 15 minutes and nothing happened.
I don't get it. I guess it's possible that this doesn't work in Chrome 8.
I'm running the Chrome 9 beta on OS 10.6.6.

Which version of Opera?

I can't help if you don't provide the browser version or operating system. It works in my Safari just fine.

My computer is aging quickly so it is probably just me, don't worry about it on my account.

Always happy to help, just let me know what you need. From what I can see, you're leveraging Media Element's Javascript video player library. Might be prudent if they've listed any known bugs. For what its worth, if you have the link ready embedded (as it looks like you are already doing that), it really should load up quickly. Hmm indeed. :think:

Maybe it's a Chrome 8 issue too... among other things.

Nice, HTML5 Video = win! Now we just have to wait for the web browsers to catch up. ;)

Using Firefox. It works, but not that well.

I wasn't really asking for help as I don't think I'll be watching the Inception trailers anytime soon, I was merely commenting on my experience with the trailer page. But for what it's worth I have Safari 5.0.3 on Mac OSX 10.5.8

The videos doesn't play for me. BLACK SCREEN.
