HTML5 video playback is not stopped when closing the window containing a video file
For once, this is not a WebKitGTK issue…
In Epiphany,
- Right-click this link: https://studios.ecchi.ca/videos/texture.webm
- "Open video in new window" (or open a new window and paste the link to the video file into it)
- While the video is playing, close the window (with the X button, or Ctrl+W)
Result: video is still playing, or at least the sound is still playing.
This apparently does not affect tabs.
Tested with Epiphany 44.3 + WebKitGTK 2.40.3 + GStreamer 1.22.4 + Wayland on GNOME 44 on Fedora 38
