I find that scrolling through a YouTube video is very difficult while viewing YouTube videos through the internet (meaning skipping from the 1 minute mark to the 3 minute mark by sliding the little ball over). However when using the YouTube APP this is very easy to do. Anyone having this issue with the internet embedded version?
 
This is an issue with many video players and other interactive embedded content.

There's simply little to no emulation of the hover/mouseover/mouseenter events which provide so much functionality in common Flash objects and sites. Flash itself may be "supported," and it could be argued that it has even been "optimized," however a lot of Flash interactivity just wasn't initially built with touch interaction in mind.

These two issues lead to mouseover events which trigger incorrectly, if at all, and click or drag events which are tricky to perform.

Edit: but yes, I agree. It sucks.
