On this page, I can run 6 videos without any issues

I copied and renamed the same video so they are different video files.

I have tryed 
https://denislafrance.net/Element/ResponsiveHTML5Video.en-us.htm
and spend days of frustration.
I could not get it to work for more than three vidoes in a project before it stops working.  I email the creator on his web site and got no answer.  
  I have over a hundred children's videos that need to be easily used by 5 year olds, like the current youTube player. youTube is not an option because it takes the students off the web site ditracting them with numerous off site video suggestion.
As HTML 5  video is a major part of web sites, it will be a valueable addition to upgrade the current openElement HTML 5 Video element. So it is worth the time.
Would the creators of videojs be interested in developing a new element?
What skills will I need to learn to help build it?

On the other hand, developping a new element with video.js takes some time.

Using javascript when HTML5 standard propose a clean video interface isn't the best idea.


This is pure HTML5

https://videojs.com/ is an open-source video player that could be an excellent update for the current HTML 5 Video element.  Would someone far more knowledgeable than I please look into the videojs code and see if it can used be use to create an openElement MEDIA element?

The current HTML 5 Video element is so out of date that you have to scroll down to the bottom left hand corner of the player to click on a small play icon.  It lacks the standard play button that you see on YouTube videos. Videojs looks like it has all the latest upgrades, capability to change skins and extensive code to play on numerous browsers.

Thanks !
