What am I missing? I saw a music video.

What kind of person sees buttons and doesn't click them? You monster ;)

Mac Pro running Mountain Lion with an ATI 5870 graphics card. Color me not terribly impressed.

I know next to nothing about graphics programming but how does this work? I don't suppose there is a Javascript loop that goes through all the pixels on each frame...

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

Ah, their movements and actions in the video make a lot more sense after seeing the original.

"Sadly, we are unable to get Seriously.js to work on your computer. Sometimes WebGL gets a bit weird with certain graphics hardware and drivers. Please have a look here for more information." Yeah, same here, running Ubuntu on a Dell Precision laptop. Guess WebGL doesn't like my setup.

Works great for me, using Chrome on Ubuntu 12.04 on a Dell Inspiron 15R (Radeon 7700M) with the latest fglrx drivers.

Got the same thing for in Chrome. Did work for me in Firefox though.

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

I'm running an i5 processor, and when the video was playing my cores jumped from the 5-10% range (background stuff I've got running) to the 25-40% range.

Interestingly, just switching from the demo tab to this HN tab (FF 21 on Ubuntu) drops the cores to the 10% range. They jump again when I switch back.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

fork disagrees.

As does pipe.

Rapidly cycling the processor affinity tries its best.

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? https://github.com/brianchirls/Seriously.js/issues Thanks

@michaelmior you can use this to help identify your browser:

Doesn't work at all for me in Firefox 21.0 on amd64 Linux. Works in Chromium 25 on the same box. This is particularly disappointing because there's a Mozilla logo on the page.
