Maybe there's more interplay on facebook. I don't know, as I don't do facebook. The problem is that unless one can get peer help on a problem here, he is left hanging. That's a bad support model.
I'm not complaining. I realize that SJ is free, and I appreciate it for what it is - the best browser made. But the media problem is serious and seems to be getting worse. It's not just twitter, or even just video. https://www.cpnshows.com/shows/strangreport is an audio site that doesn't work. Can I continue to deploy a browser that doesn't handle media?
I've written before how great companies have gone down because they lost customer good will. Opera virtually chased their user base away. SJ deserves better.

Videos do not play on Twitter
Re: Videos do not play on Twitter
There is no support from the Slimjet people on Facebook. None. Here is the deal. They need to stick closer to the current Chrome release and not get so far off the track so as to break stuff. A browser should be able to play all multimedia. Period.
Re: Videos do not play on Twitter
I see that Slimjet 11.0.6 is out now and supposedly the Twitter video issue is fixed. I will update later today after work and check it out.

After update to Version 11.0.6.0 this video now plays....RBTB2605 wrote:When I am occasionally on Twitter using Slimjet and try to play a video posted there, I get the message "This browser does not support video playback."
Here is one such random link...

Why ? Does this video play for anyone else ?
Re: Videos do not play on Twitter
Just updated to 11.0.6 and the video plays fine.

Re: Videos do not play on Twitter
So now another frustration that this new version has caused ! Facebook videos are now having the issue that I had before with local TV station videos ... normal video and delayed and very slow sound. I guess that I just can't win. It plays perfectly in Opera latest version.
Here is one that is screwed up.

Re: Videos do not play on Twitter
I'm seeing no improvement in the twitter situation, and other sites may be worse, in terms of choppiness.
Re: Videos do not play on Twitter
Well videos on Twitter are working for me and there is no choppiness at all. That would be caused by buffering I do believe. And not all videos on Facebook are messed up, just some.paul1149 wrote:I'm seeing no improvement in the twitter situation, and other sites may be worse, in terms of choppiness.
Re: Videos do not play on Twitter
So now the slow sound is on 90% of the videos I watch on Facebook. This is unacceptable.
In fact, it is now so bad that I am just going to put Slimjet on the back shelf once again and use Opera as my go to browser until this new video issue is fixed. I do tend to watch a lot of video's on Facebook , including replays of live events.
