The add-ons video is a bit old skool

[andymckay]

Go to about:addons, click "watch the video" or "Learn more about add-ons".

A couple of things:

• It says "You can use personas", they got renamed to themes a while ago
• Two of the add-ons that it adds in "F1 by Mozilla Labs" and "Add to Amazon Wishlist" no longer exist

If we want to keep this video around, I bet we can find replacements for those add-ons and just update that.

[andymckay]

Personally, I think the video is pretty cool.

I think we'd need to start over, because it would be hard to edit the voice, and also--who has the original files?

[andymckay]

Only if we wanted to edit the voice. The links to the add-ons are done in JS and can be fixed up manually without touching the video.

This video was a fligtar production.

Any opposition to getting the creative team involved?

[andymckay-limited-access]

None at all. But, might want to be filed under the "what does the future of
about:addons" look like.

Ah, then perhaps it would be premature to do a full update on the video. I'll ask fligtar if he remembers where the original files are.

Here's the .mov file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gjjfjh9lgxemt9r/FF%20576%20h264%20v2.mov?dl=0

Any update on this for the disco pane refresh? @atsay or @deadsquid

@atsay ^^

I filed this bug with the creative team to see if they can help: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1262350

[andymckay]

Cool, thanks Amy. Closing this bug since we've got that bugzilla one open.

[deadsquid]

So weird to continue to get all these bits from the past (that are closed) because they're being administratively moved around.

Yup yup
