Web Browser Discussion, Browser Talk - Slimjet Web Browser Online Forum

I just tried several YouTube videos with Slimjet 33.0.0.0 and they will not start playing. I just get an error message:
"An error occurred. Please try again later. (Playback ID: BnnDGrYLbf3P4Bat)".
The videos work fine with Vivaldi (another chromium browser), with SeaMonkey and with Safari (webkit, but not blink).

I got this issue once I installed this on my machine but after restarting it never happens again. But I am having issues with the YouTube Videos Ads they are super annoying and I am unable to block with the slimjet

Later on, I replaced libffmpeg.dylib in Slimjet with the one that normally comes with it, and now the YouTube videos play, but mp4s do not. I use YouTube more, so I shall have to use another browser to play those.
uBlock Origin seems to block most of the ads on YouTube. I run into one occasionally, but it is fine most of the time. Someone on another forum suggested that blocking Doubleclick completely should help, and I did that with my personal filters in uBlock Origin.

Get the new libffmpeg in here: https://github.com/Ld-Hagen/fix-opera-linux-ffmpeg-widevine/releases. Downloads the 0.57.1 version, extract it and replace it to the one in /opt/slimjet (rename the old libffmpeg.so -> libffmpeg.so.old)

The link says "linux". The content of the zip file has the wrong extension name. For MacOS, the extension name of a subroutine library has to be .dylib.
