Youtube play broken #631

Closed tyjak closed 3 years ago

tyjak commented 3 years ago

Version: 3.6.0 WebKit compile: 2.26.2 WebKit run: 2.28.4 GTK compile: 3.24.13 GTK run: 3.24.23 libsoup compile: 2.68.3 libsoup run: 2.70.0 Extension dir: /usr/lib/vimb

Steps to reproduce

Install last package gst-libav-1.18.0-1, gst-plugins-bad, gst-plugins-bad-libs (Archlinux)

Expected behaviour

Youtube video to play

Actual behaviour

Youtube video does not play anymore

I have to downgrade to gst-libav, gst-plugins-bad and gst-plugins-bad-libs to 1.16.2-13 to have youtube play back again. Probably not a vimb issue, but thought could be useful for other to know this.

@tyjak I can't reproduce this issue on archlinux. I updated all packages today an can view youtube videos without any issues.

$ pacman -Q | grep gst
gst-libav 1.18.0-1
gst-plugins-bad 1.18.0-1
gst-plugins-bad-libs 1.18.0-1
gst-plugins-base 1.18.0-1
gst-plugins-base-libs 1.18.0-1
gst-plugins-good 1.18.0-1
gst-plugins-ugly 1.18.0-1
gstreamer 1.18.0-1
gstreamer-vaapi 1.18.0-1

Not sure if this helps, but your vimb was compiled against an old webkit, so it might help to compile it again.

I installed vimb from the arch communauty repo (pacam -S vimb) and this vimb package is compiled against the 2.26.2 version of webkit. But even with this version and with the updated gst lib dependencies, I don't have the pb anymore...
