[SOLVED] Suckless' Surf freezes on viewing a Youtube video
Hello,
I'm unable to view Youtube videos through Suckless' Surf web browser because of a freeze which occurs when a video starts playing.
When that occurs, the following text is printed on the terminal from which Surf was launched from:

This system is running a custom kernel with nvidia's proprietary drivers. (nvidia-dkms & nvidia-utils)
My kernel's .config file is in the OP of my previous thread.
I haven't made any modifications to Surf's source code after git cloning it.
I'd love to provide more information but I have yet to figure out how to proceed from here or how to make Surf more verbose about the problem.
Though it could be that the answer is right in front of me but I have yet to grasp it.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Re: [SOLVED] Suckless' Surf freezes on viewing a Youtube video
To fix the first warning, you need the glimagesink I think. You seem to be missing gst-plugins-base which does include it.

I was so sure that I had gst-plugins-base installed but instead I had gst-plugins-base-libs.
Installing the said package fixed my issue it seems.
Thank you for the lightning fast response.
I need to read more carefully next time.
