META: iPhone app video embed

By weasel3216 — November 30th, 2012 at 9:42 PM — 26 comments
Anyone else have this problem? Every time I enter a thread that has a video embedded the video screen continues down the thread far beyond where it should by extending the post box. It is to the point that I have to just start scrolling for at least 15 seconds to find the next actual post.

Scroll down too far and fast and the whole screen goes from black patches to blank. Looks like classified government files.

I just use my browser and go to the regular site when I'm on my phone. You get the full experience and don't have to deal with app problems.

I had emailed with him this week and it sounds like an app update is coming very soon. It will have iPhone 5 screen support, but I'm not sure if he's fixed the video problem. Hope so!
