I've just shown that it *is* a codec problem on linux. Going a bit further, the SeaMonkey linux builds disable gstreamer: Configure arguments ... --with-ccache=/usr/bin/ccache *--disable-gstreamer* --disable-pulseaudio ... It is not disabled in the Firefox linux build: Configure arguments --enable-update-channel=release --enable-update-packaging --with-google-api-keyfile=/builds/gapi.data --enable-crashreporter --enable-release --enable-elf-hack --enable-stdcxx-compat --target=i686-pc-linux --x-libraries=/usr/lib --enable-warnings-as-errors --enable-official-branding Probably due to this: <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=794282> Enable GStreamer in official builds I know nothing of the Mac builds, but you can check by having a look at 'about:buildconfig' (Configure arguments). Perhaps this may also be of interest regarding Mac: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=851290 Use GStreamer on Mac for H.264/MP3/AAC playback (instead of AV Foundation) _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
