There is no video media playback available in various platforms e.g no video playback in Odysee.com nor Twitter.

nb Cannot login to Youtube.com account either.

What operating system are you using? What version of Qt and Qt WebEngine is being used on the host OS?

Have you tried changing the default user agent? Not so sure about Twitter, but I believe that Google/Youtube blocks certain UAs such as QtWebEngine. This works for me, FWIW:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/87.0.4280.144 Safari/537.36

The user agent can be set to the above value, or anything else, from the Tools -> User Agents menu

Hello, Thanks for the reply and suggestion. I implemented the User Agent (I think - see attached pic) but it does not seem to make any difference. viper

Sorry for the delayed response. Have you activated the user agent after registering it with the web browser? Like so: image

Closing- if you still have an issue after enabling the user agent (see above), please contact me.
