Some Reddit videos are not playing (38.0.10.0)

Post by killingtime »

Hi,

I'm using 38.0.10.0 on Win7, and about 1/3 of the videos on Reddit don't play. I get audio, but just a frozen video. Disabled 3rd part extensions. For example:

reddit.com/r/CrazyFuckingVideos/comments/1je3dg9/nothing_to_see_here/
reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/1jb4395/the_side_streets_of_amsterdam_shot_on_a_130/

These videos play in other browsers and in VLC on the desktop. It's just slimjet.

Any ideas welcomed.

Thanks.

5 days with no replies.

Also noticed that some videos play for 5 seconds and then freeze.

Looks like slimjet is still a work in progress then, as slimbrowser had this polished.

Not to worry. I'll go back to firefox and check back in a year to see if things have improved.

Maybe the codecs have been corrupted. I don't really know, I don't have the same version of Slimjet and I don't have the same version of Windows either.
