Comment (by rafa8626):

 @westonruter Thanks for the suggestion. @jbpaul17 here's my Dev Note:

 {{{
 MediaElement has been upgraded to 4.2.6, which includes, among lots of bug
 fixes:

 * UI with flexbox
 * Improvements in controls Accessibility
 * Stopped support for old browsers (supports IE11+, Chrome, FF, Safari,
 Android 4+ and iOS 8+)
 * Upgraded YouTube and Vimeo renderers to use new APIs
     (for Vimeo, it uses now https://player.vimeo.com/api/player.js, since
 Froogaloop is now deprecated)

 As a special note for WP developers: In order to create themes compatible
 with it, it is required to add
 the classPrefix: 'mejs-' in the player configuration, since latest version
 of MEJS switched to
 BEM naming convention.
 }}}
