The phrase "is paused" seems to imply that it's been manually paused by the user, but this would not apply when a page is first viewed and the video has not been played yet.

For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Did Not Understand Request Change Description: no spec change Rationale: media.paused definitely doesn't represent if the element is playing or not. There are a lot of ways in which .paused can be false but the element not be playing. Do you have another suggestion? I don't want something less accurate than "is paused or not", but I'm happy to change it if we can find something better. 52854 2 mike 2011-08-04 05:04:48 +0000 mass-moved component to LC1
