I just figured out that there are ads on the videos. I guess I don't see them on my computer because I'm signed into the Megavideo service. Not sure what I can do about it at this point, unfortunately... I'll try and see what's going on and if there is any way to stop it. I do pay for premium service so I don't think the videos should have ads on them. That said, they don't seem to be too big on customer service over there, I don't even see a "help" link, but I'll keep looking.

it's probably just something megavideo sends through with javascript/flash when non-logged in people play a video.
nb: the video also did not play afterwards, so there's kind of a "click once, get an ad, click again to play." now, it popped up in a separate tab and didn't display, likely due to my adblocker, so maybe if their server hears back that the ad actually appeared then the video starts playing. that is, if my adblocker prevented their server from knowing the ad was shown (which it wasn't), then the autoplay signal would not have been sent to the player. just spitballin', love the blog and i'll disable the adblocker for bedazzled. :)

No ad before video for me. Also no pop-outs, overs, unders etc.
Using:
Firefox 4.0.1
Adblock Plus 1.3.7
NoScript 2.1.0.3
Flashblock 1.5.14.2
When I use a sandboxed Opera instance (my choice for a "promiscuous" browser) I do get the ad.
