To change what is playing, just use the src attribute on the media element directly, possibly making use of the canPlayType() method to pick from amongst available resources. Generally, manipulating source elements manually after the document has been parsed is an unnecessarily complicated approach." and the shadow DOM distributions spec http://w3c.github.io/webcomponents/spec/shadow/#distributions that results in the video tag not being able to be constructively used inside a web component Example here: http://jsfiddle.net/n88owmop/4/ 112644 1 philipj 2014-10-03 13:32:14 +0000 I don't quite understand the problem, can you elaborate? Is the problem that the <source> element won't become the direct child of the <video> element because of however <template> and <content> work? 112650 2 dylan 2014-10-03 15:06:35 +0000 The discussion has moved on to here; https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=26952 112782 3 philipj 2014-10-07 09:10:27 +0000 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 26952 ***
