For linux: I got the video to play in Firefox 29 on Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04. I've not been able to get SeaMonkey 26 to play in either. When I rebooted to 14.04, Firefox couldn't play the video in window. I added just about every codec that I could think of... Finally figured it out for the FF part: my 12.04 has gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg (which includes the h.264 decoder) installed, my 14.04 didn't. Ubuntu 14.04 doesn't provide gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg in any of the Trusty/14.04 repositories. So, I added the mc3man ppa: <http://www.webupd8.org/2014/03/get-firefox-and-phonon-gstreamer-to.html> and as soon as I did, Firefox played the video w/o issue. Now I just have to figure out why SeaMonkey 26 (32bit and 64bit) doesn't for me. Note: all versions of Firefox and SeaMonkey are the most current released Mozilla builds - not distro builds. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
