Google News App Updates

i am assuming that you are referring to the google news page?
Yes i am referring to that page and whenever i minimise the video the network usage stops...i have checked with many videos
 
just play the video and press the toggle button. the video would continue to play like usual. if you check the code of google news... they are using javascript to interact with the youtube vidoe element.

For me the video is being stopped and minimised when i am pressing toggle button.
And yes google seems to be using JS for this
 
Video stops on pressing toggle button in firefox 4, continues playing in opera 11. didnt test in IE or chrome.
 
hehe yeah. firefox seems to stop the video on pressing the toggle button. looks like the video code is refreshed on the toggle and that sorts of kill the already downloaded sections of the video.
 
in any case jquery can be modified to achieve the result we want.i saw this script being used to toggle iframe contaning video$("button").click(function () {$("p").toggle("slow");}); which can be modified as :$("button").click(function () {$("p").toggle("slow");$("iframe").attr('src', $("iframe").attr('src'));}); i havent tested it but it shud give us the desired result.
 
Yea tested in other browsers...its just stops in Firefox.
