How to get audio and video streaming working (eg Youtube)?

Post by tukozaki »

Hi,
I'm testing Slimjet 7.0.6.0 (Chromium 47.0.2526.73) on Linux and with default settings it can't play audio or videos on Bandcamp.com, dailymotion or youtube. Feel dumb and alone as FAQ, forum and search engines gave me zaro related thread :oops:
Please what are the steps to enable html5 media streaming?

I understand the reasons behind the lack of patented codecs (eg. mp3) but html5??
Turning off "Disable reading from HTML5 canvas" wouldn't help, would it?

Bandcamp:

Code: Select all

21:33:16.962: bcweekly: replacing history: http://bandcamp.com/?show=165    global_head_bundle_min_51d58f56e10a1cc890704e213c4⟫
21:33:17.084: playlist loading track 0  global_head_bundle_min_51d58f56e10a1cc890704e213c431de4.js:340 
21:33:17.099: WrapperSoundPlayer: HTML5 playback doesn't support mp3-128, loading flash
Youtube I couldn't get useful logs in console. Dailymotion.com:

Code: Select all

GET chrome-extension://fjhoaacokmgbjemoflkofnenfaiekifl/cast_sender.js net::ERR_FAILED
ajax.js:69 GET http://ad.pxlad.io/ad?c=music&format=in-related&n=1&p=3&r=8l185&th=84&tw=15…u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailymotion.com%⟫
x3rdwi2_kza-vous-dansez_music:1151 GET http://pq-direct.revsci.net/pql?placementIdList=Yzgfk7,NDu9xl,u7hqK2,Cs0XXD,lMoxcA&cb=1⟫
x3rdwi2_kza-vous-dansez_music:1163 GET http://js.revsci.net/gateway/gw.js?csid=F09828&auto=t&bpid=dailymotion net::ERR_BLOCKED⟫
x3rdwi2_kza-vous-dansez_music:1353 GET http://rtax.criteo.com/delivery/rta/rta.js?
Other installed browsers at least play html5 videos. And audio after installing ffmpeg and some gst/gstreamer-plugins. I got these installed:

Code: Select all

ffmpeg 1:2.8.6-2

extra/gst-libav 1.6.3-1

    GStreamer Multimedia Framework Good Plugins (gst-plugins-good)

    GStreamer Multimedia Framework Ugly plugin libraries
extra/gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins 0.10.19-16 (gstreamer0.10-plugins)
    GStreamer Multimedia Framework Ugly Plugins (gst-plugins-ugly)
I'm running a long browsers test and it includes Youtube and Bandcamp.

EDIT
On html5test Slimjet gets: full Video support but Audio/Video track selection, MPEG-4 ASP & H.264. And full Audio but AAC & MP3.
Palemoon and Firefox have H.264, AAC & MP3. And play the aforementioned streaming platforms

OK Chromium plays them so playin html5 audio/videos should be no problem for Slimjet on Linux. Problem here, it does not. Mind to share aa link or something?
