How can I get HTML5 support in chromium-browser-bin?
Here is the package I have now:
chromium-browser-bin
chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-nonfree-bin 50002-1
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg 0.10.10-1
x264 20100607-1And something as dependancies for the above.
But I cannot watch video in HTML5 mode in chromium.
Is there anything I missed?
Thanks a lot.

Is there a reason, why you not use the chromium package from extra?

Re: How can I get HTML5 support in chromium-browser-bin?
1. Why not use chromium from extra?
2. chromium does not support all vide encodings, only a few of them. This is due to licensing, software patensts, politics and other fun stuff.
Blame the ones who desided to not make thedora the standard encoding in html5.

chromium from extra supports all codecs chrome does; including h264 and mp3.
