Yes, I took it for granted that I'm watching these videos on the page. I do download as I prefer the UI of VLC over what most pages give me (and VLC does not cook my CPU). Unfortunately, that approach does not work with, say, InfoQ and other sites that synchronize slides with the videos content. Also, if there's an easy way to cobble together a plasma widget for this purpose, I'd consider it. However, I don't want to dig deeply into lots of APIs for just this.
