Impossible to move to a specific time in some videos on Laracasts

Hello,

Thank you for the scrollbar ... hmmm now it's light, but there is no sufficient contrast to really see where is the bar.

Some other problem with the videos : for some days, where I watch some videos on Laracast, it's impossible to move to a specific time in these videos, there is no cursor anymore.

For example with this video, I don't have any cursor.

But with this one, I have a cursor.

Can you do something please ?

Thanks ;).

Found a workaround, hit the small screen link, then resize that, it works. But I see what you mean.

@jlrdw I have resized the broswer window and effectively I see the cursor, but I see it only if the window if very small and them impossible to see for example what the code on the video.

@vincent15000 I experienced this a couple of weeks ago. During this time I was also unable to pause or have any playback controls after the video was started. I wasn't sure if it was a specific problem for me or not. The issue on Firefox.

@vincent15000 Is it isolated to particular videos or series. I did notice the series I was having issues with was older, but did not have the same issue watching larabits the same day.

@vincent15000 Yeah, I did. Just wasn't sure if you know about other Series with the issue. So far, I've only noticed it on very old videos.

The first one has no controls, but will stop and start with a click. It does however have full controls on popout.

@vincent15000 This should be fixed now. The issue was related to the aspect-ratio being hard-coded, even though we have some older videos that were recorded at different sizes. We now determine the ratio dynamically.
