 My HTTPS-E version is actually 3.4.5, but I didn't see that listed in the
 version field...

 Problem url:
 http://www.bitplane.com/learning

 Click on "Advanced Search", and filter the list for "tutorial videos" or
 "webinar recordings" ->  thumbnails of the flash videos (hosted by wistia)
 are generally not visible.  If you choose "application video gallery"
 instead, those flash video thumbnails (also wistia-hosted) work fine.

 I noticed one difference is that the videos with thumbnails that work are
 playing back in a floating overlay window, but the ones where thumbnails
 fail are playing back in a player that's embedded in the webpage.

 The reason I submitted this as a ruleset bug for the wistia domains is
 that, if I disable the "Wistia (parial)" ruleset, all the video thumbnails
 are generated just fine.

 Since Wistia sells video hosting services, I guess this may affect other
 customers of theirs besides bitplane.com, but I don't know of any other
 specific ones other than their "sister site":
 http://www.andor.com/learning-academy?type=video
 (Bitplane is an Andor / Oxford Instruments company)
