Hmmm... Let's see. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1047159 Do you have a media.peerconnection.video.h264 knob? I don't, but I do see media.peerconnection.video.h264_enabled mine defaults to false. Perhaps try toggling it and restart SM? I have media.peerconnection.enabled to false though. Hmmm, media.peerconnection screams "WebRTC". I'm wondering, like you, if the Cisco plug-in is used at all outside WebRTC... This seems to imply the plug-in is useful for Youtube: https://github.com/cisco/openh264/issues/2835 Regards. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
