I actually like that they do this and let me use the UI I know and that will definitely work. 99% your video playback UX is not as good and you mostly want to take over full-screen so you can prevent the user from doing things (you may fall in the 1%, but I’m generalizing so apologies if you’re one of the few exceptions). It’s annoying on the iPad when sites build half-cocked full-screen UIs with buggy custom controls.

As mentioned, our app is WebGL i.e. interactive real-time rendering, not at all video playback.

That said, I agree with you on custom video UIs being horrid.

Oh neat, and sorry for missing that. I can totally see why you might have valid reasons for that.
