Bug#644203: closed by Michael Gilbert michael.s.gilb...@gmail.com (re: fails to play HTML5 videos)
found 644203 1.6.1-5 thanks On Tue, 17 Jan 2012 01:36:04 + Debian Bug Tracking System wrote: version: 1.6.1-5 Hi, I've tested that this works with at least the latest version of webkit/midori. You lucky boy! ;-) I still cannot make it work with midori/0.4.3-1 and libwebkitgtk-1.0-0/1.6.1-5+b1 on an updated Debian testing box. Please note that I can play HTML5 videos with chromium, as mentioned in the original bug report. Note that youtube can't serve all of its video over html5 yet, so you may have been testing with some of their flash-only stuff? I am kind of aware of this, but tested with HTML5 videos, such as: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIj3kpPYh1Mfeature=relmfu which plays fine with chromium, but fails to start with midori (it looks as if it were trapped in an endless loop, while waiting to begin: it only shows the swirling circles, or whatever you want to call them, and nothing else happens). Please note that, as I said in the original bug report, I also used the so-called test-drive suggested by midori FAQ: http://ie.microsoft.com/testdrive/Graphics/VideoFormatSupport/Default.html It fails with midori, while it works fine with chromium... I am therefore reopening the bug report. I hope we can figure out what's wrong...

retitle 644203 recommend gstreamer0.10-plugins-good and gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg thanks On Wed, Jan 18, 2012 at 4:23 PM, Francesco Poli wrote: Note that youtube can't serve all of its video over html5 yet, so you may have been testing with some of their flash-only stuff?

So, I was able to reproduce your issues by removing my gstreamer libraries. After that, I found that installing gstreamer0.10-plugins-good and gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg are the needed to get multimedia working on the sites mentioned above. I think added those webkit recommends would resolve this issue. Best wishes, Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
