Seriously did nothing for me. Uncaught Not a valid HTML element: EMBED (must be img, video or canvas)

It sounds like you may have a browser addon that's creating an EMBED element as a fallback because the browser can't play the video itself.

If that's not the case, do you mind writing a bug issue on github with your browser details?

IN JS? This is so cool. Also: fun to compare the raw video to the original: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12zJw9varYE :)

How are they changing out the backgrounds in the tech demo? I was expecting the original to be a green screen background...

Wow, I've never seen all 4 cores in my machine simultaneously spin up to 90% before. Nice trick.

Yeah, I got the same. Do you have Flashblock? Try whitelisting seriouslyjs.org and reloading. Fixed it for me on Fx 23.0a2.

(Note: This comment was originally complaining that the link didn't work in Firefox; edited when I found the cause.)

Click in the Raw button, you will see the green background :)

Hm, that is strange. It does not even tax my CPU enough to kick it out of its lowest speed state, let alone tax any of the cores.

I'm confused, is the green screen suppose to be intentionally bad? It not only removes the background but most of the people as well. Edit: Here is what it looks like for me: http://i.imgur.com/8wflg8Q.jpg in both Firefox 21 and Chrome 29+27

No, it is definitely not supposed to look like that. Here's what it looks like for me: https://s3.amazonaws.com/uploads.hipchat.com/23744/150541/nk...

Do you mind sharing your video card info and operating system? It will be hard to debug remotely, but I'll see what I can dig up. Please post it here or on github: https://github.com/brianchirls/Seriously.js/issues

Thanks

Working fine on 27.0.1453.93 on OSX here. Although the pictures seem to have been changed. There's only one person's face on the left on mine.
