"Browser does not support video playback" in Silver Bird

[Lannig92]

Hello,

Newcomer to Slimjet and long-time user or SRWare Iron, I'm quite happy that I've discovered it and really thinking of making the switch for my daily use. Slimjet has a lot of neat add-ons, seems memory-efficient and I do appreciate the full support of Windows XP even for the latest versions.

Anyway, I have this issue that videos embedded in tweets don't play in the Silver Bird extension, I get the message in the title of this post.

I used to have this same error message when I had fallen behind a lot in Iron versions, but since then I haven't seen it in Chrome or any Chromium "fork" I've tried on this same machine.

Machine is Windows XP (yes, I know...) 32-bit SP3 with 4 Gb RAM.

Any advice please? (if you feel like replying "upgrade to Win7", please just don't, I have my reasons for keeping this machine on XP).

FYI, this does not yet qualify as a known issue. If it is not established as such I will be moving this topic to the Bug Report or General forum as appropriate.
