Support of Video and Audio Players simultaneous playback. #232

We investigate the possibility to play video (without audio tracks) and separate audio content in parallel on Comcast devices. For that, we are using audio and video html5 players. Currently, when 2 players are launched simultaneously, one will start playback and the second player will be automatically paused. Is there a way to start playback on audio and video players simultaneously?

The device can probably only handle playback of one videostream. You could investigate if the browser has support for WebAudio api and test if you can play an audio source while playback has started

Can we close this issue?
