Can't scroll a thread with an embedded youtube video
Here's a puzzler:
HP Probook 4520s, Windows 7 Professional sp1, Firefox 13, Synaptics Touchpad, tried driver 15.0.24 and 15.2.20. On a Rennlist thread where a post has a youtube video embedded, I can't scroll the thread unless I click on the scrollbar. I checked 3 or 4 other vBulletin forums and I can scroll the thread on all of them, so what is different about Rennlist?

Yep, like that on every browser - it's not just you.
If the cursor comes into contact with the youtube video frame the scrolling feature is disabled.

The cursor doesn't have to touch the video - that's how it used to (not) work, but now if there's just a video on the page ( I think it has to be in the visible window ), the thread won't scroll at all. I've only tested Firefox and IE, and IE doesn't have the problem. On another forum I see the same thing if I play a video, scrolls fine until you play the video, then when it ends I can't scroll. Click on another area in the window, still can't. Switch to another tab, switch back, now I can scroll. But something in the Rennlist coding makes the Youtube video "active" to the Synaptics touchpad in Firefox, so no scrolling no matter where the cursor is.
