Hello,
There is a video problem with Slimjet 14. On Youtube you see a few times:
"Your browser does not recognize any of the available video formats.
Click here to see our HTML5 faq."
I do not have this problem with MxNitro!

I, too, would like a solution to this.

Can you provide a link to a YouTube video that gives you this message ? YouTube works fine here for me.

I have a similar problem since loading Slimjet 14.0.15.0 64-bit most videos will not play. Works fine in:
Chromium 58.0.3029.110 and
Chrome 59.0.3071.115 and
Vivaldi 1.10.867.42. and
Firefox 54.0 (64-bit)
Example is attached.
Linux Mint Cinnamon 18.1.

Same problem.
Upgraded to Slimjet ver 14.0.16.0 64-bit several days ago (including the libffmpeg.so thing). Slimjet was playing youtube videos last night but, as of this AM, I now get ""Your browser does not recognize...".

Downloaded and installed Beta 15. Youtube seems to work OK now, but FoxNewsGo does not work at all.

Can't win for losing. I've read somewhere (not on this forum) that this is an issue with, I think I'm remembering this right, the Widevine decoder. Different problems for different browser engines because they have their own version of the Widevine written for that browser engine. So some will work for one thing and note another and vice versa.
Possibly the only solution at this point is to install a couple different browsers until you find the one that plays the content for you. Very annoying this is especially since after a few updates it may no longer play that content.
I'm sticking with Slimjet as my primary browser but I have a few others installed which I'll run as needed.

OK, I understand. Personally I have Slimjet, Vivaldi, Chrome, Chromium and Firefox. I'm used to trying different browsers if one doesn't work for a particular task. At the moment I've switched over to Vivaldi as default since it does both Foxnewsgo and Youtube (and all other video I've tried). Vivaldi has lots more options but Slimjet is faster which is why I've preferred it up to now.
