when the android phone is turned off, and then back on again, any desk top icon or bookmark of an web page with a manifest will not work when in airplane mode. You must at least make an attempt to turn on wifi, even an unsuccessful attempt to find a wifi connection will do. Then when you use the book mark or the desktop icon, it will work.

I am doing coursework in Udacity. The site uses youtube for it's video playback. The videos are in the html5 format. I know this because I right click on them and get a message about html5 and not flash. Sometimes when I try to watch a video in firefox, I see the video loading on the progress bar, but it will not play. If I then open chromium, and visit the you tube site and start playing a random video, all of a sudden the video will play in firefox.

Since Firefox 18 i think when direct link to video or audio file in supported format is clicked the browser generates html5 page with video/audio tag and tries to play it instead of opening it as configured. Unfortunately the build in player lacks both in features and formats support when compared to some plugins and is not suitable as drop-in replacement for them. Is there a way to disable the new behavior and open links normally?
I know that disabling formats in about:config (media.format.enabled) solves the problem, but it also breaks pages, that intentionally use audio/video tags.
