[SOLVED] HTML5 Player not fully working (settings + plugins installed)

Hey there,

I am using Iceweasel and have the following plugins installed:

pacman -Qqs gstreamer
gst-libav
gst-plugins-base
gst-plugins-base-libs
gst-plugins-good
gstreamer
gstreamer0.10
gstreamer0.10-base
gstreamer0.10-base-plugins

The following settings in about:config:

media.mediasource.enabled 	true
media.mediasource.mp4.enabled 	true 
media.mediasource.webm.enabled 	true 
media.fragmented-mp4.exposed 	true 	
media.fragmented-mp4.ffmpeg.enabled 	true 

but on https://www.youtube.com/html5 the following are still disabled:

Media Source Extensions
MSE & H.264
MSE & WebM VP9

Youtube works, 4chan .webm videos work... e.g. vimeo doesn't work.

Am I missing some plugin/Settings?

Thanks !

Try setting media.mediasource.format-reader to false. That enables "MSE & WebM VP9" in the test page above for me (if media.mediasource.enabled and media.mediasource.webm.enabled are also set).

No idea on MSE & H.264 and whether this is supported at all.

Thanks.. for some reason "media.mediasource.enabled" was disabled.. + changing what you said fixed it.

Now everything on " https://www.youtube.com/html5 " is enabled and vimeo works as well !

Re: [SOLVED] HTML5 Player not fully working (settings + plugins installed)

Glad to help, but you helped me, too. I was a bit jealous because MSE & H.264 was enabled for you but not for me. But enabling media.fragmented-mp4.exposed and media.fragmented-mp4.ffmpeg.enabled  as you posted above changed that.

Please mark your thread as resolved.
