For me, Firefox (50.0 on Ubuntu 14.04) not only shows the warning, but also seems to prevent embedded .gif/.gifv animations from playing, at least on Reddit and Twitter. Example: Almost every video on https://www.reddit.com/r/gifs/ After clicking the Play button, the video will "load forever" or show a still image.
It worked in previous FF versions, or works when setting media.libavcodec.allow-obsolete=true (which I don't want to do permanently). It also works *sometimes* if the URL is pointing directly to the GIF file. Would appreciate if the fix for 14.04 could get a higher priority. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643467 Title: Firefox 50 blocks Ubuntu 14.04 LTS's version of libavcodec To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1643467/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
