Youtube videos stop loading after the first few seconds #120

Closed rfrelow closed 6 years ago

If "Store every visited webpage" is enabled, no youtube videos load after the first few seconds. Disabling this feature and refreshing fixes the problem.

I'm using Webmemex 0.2.2, found here:

Thanks for reporting. I suspect this has the same cause as similar problems I recently discovered: The freeze-dry code adds a CSP (that prohibits networking connections) to the page's snapshot, but Firefox erroneously applies this also to the currently viewed page itself.

We might have to create a workaround while this bug exists, or perhaps we won't encounter this problem anymore after making other planned changes to freeze-dry (I'm thinking about running most of the freeze-dry code in the background process instead of the content script).

This underlying issue is tracked in freeze-dry #10, and is reported to Mozilla here.

Underlying issue is fixed in Firefox 57, I just checked it in Nightly and it seems to work. Closing this.
