no video playback on FB livestreams #299

Closed ahjolinna closed 8 years ago

ahjolinna commented 8 years ago

when I get a notification that someone has started a livestream on Facebook and when went to check stream it wont play it, it's just a black/blank screen. Normal FB videos do work normally, also the "archived"/saved livestreams.

I'm using the git version of freshplayerplugin, with FF43.0.4 on chakraOS

I don't use Facebook usually. Is there a way to find a live stream?

ahjolinna commented 8 years ago

find? no, you have to have a friend or follow someone who starts a livestream...there are few that I follow who does it few times a week...I will check if it was nvidia beta driver problem

should be fixed since FB uses ovbiously RTMP/RTMFP/RTMPE/RTMPTE protocols please try the last git thanks

@ahjolinna, does it work now? Or bug's still there?

If I recall correctly, PepperFlash started to use other parts of API for making UDP connections. Since real-time communication protocols are implemented over raw UDP, that most probably was the reason. Since new API parts were implemented long ago, there is no sense in keeping this issue open.
