Should <video> and <audio> elements be able to load and play resources from other origins?</blockquote><div><br>How would this affect the very common scenario where content sites put static and large data under a separate domain.<br>
This is commonly done to avoid sending Cookies and other headers, while also decreasing load times, as the content is<br>now being loaded from a different domain.<br><br>For example: What are my limitations, if I put my video at <a href="http://ex.cdn/">http://ex.cdn/</a>, but load it from <a href="http://www.example.com/">http://www.example.com/</a> ?<br>
Is there a way for me to whitelist a particular list of hosts/domains? Would progress bars, loading different clips, captions, etc. be restricted? What happens if there is metadata in the media file container that is <a href="http://example.com">example.com</a> specific, is there a way to get access to it?<br>
