Description Matthew Gregan [:kinetik] 2013-06-24 02:02:38 UTC 
The spec should be state whether attaching and detaching a MediaSource with multiple media elements at once is expected to be supported or what error handling is required if it's not supported.
Comment 1 Aaron Colwell 2013-06-25 14:44:41 UTC 
I believe that this is covered in section 2.4.1 Attaching to a media element. The first step checks to see if the readyState is not "closed" and indicates that error logic should be run in this case. If the readyState == "closed" then it is immediately transitioned to "open" which blocks any further HTMLMediaElements from attaching the MediaSource object until the element is detached.
Comment 2 Matthew Gregan [:kinetik] 2013-07-02 04:10:07 UTC 
You're right, sorry about that.
