8,136 PointsWhich Media Player is being used by Treehouse?
There are handful of good media players out there that can be customized to fit ones UI, but I'm interested to know which media player Treehouse decided to use for their videos. Nick Pettit

Treehouse TeacherTreehouse uses Media Element JS, just like we teach in the HTML Video and Audio course.
If you're ever wondering what technology a site is using, sometimes you can get a good idea from the Chrome Dev Tools. In Google Chrome, right click on the page element that you're curious about and choose "Inspect Element" from the context menu.
