When assigning a URL to the mediaplayer object it started appending the current path to the URL. Did not do that in prior version. You can see it automatically puts the current browsing URL and then the URL that is assigned. So the file will not load.

I had to special case FireFox in my code to remove the site URL when assigning the URL. Will work until they change back. However it restricts cross referencing a video from another site.

Firefox has some issues with various functions that are available in Edge / Chrome. I have been a long time user of Firefox so it pains me to tell my customers that they have to use Edge or Chrome for full functionality of the web site. Like the function requestVideoFrameCallback which is not supported in Firefox but is in Edge, Chrome and Safari. The addition of base URL mentioned above and the URL not handling spaces correctly, these where not issues in prior version.
