Error on Playback #76

Closed dessert1 closed 7 years ago

dessert1 commented 7 years ago

When I try to view a video (no matter which!), the player only shows the message “The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported.” – how can I fix this? I'm running Chromium 58.0.3029.110 on Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit.

Is there any output in developer-console (F12)?

dessert1 commented 7 years ago

Indeed there is:

video.min.js:18 VIDEOJS: Cast APIs not available
video.min.js:18 VIDEOJS: Cast APIs not available. Max reconnect attempt
mediathekviewweb.de/:1 Mixed Content: The page at 'https://mediathekviewweb.de/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure video 'http://avdlswr-a.akamaihd.net/swr/swr-fernsehen/landesschau-rp/gut-zu-wissen/2017/05/941007.sm.mp4'. This content should also be served over HTTPS.
video.min.js:18 VIDEOJS: ERROR: (CODE:4 MEDIA_ERR_SRC_NOT_SUPPORTED) The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported. d {code: 4, message: "The media could not be loaded, either because the …rk failed or because the format is not supported."}

The first two lines appear over and over again in the console, the other two just once. Chromium seems to rate the video as insecure, so maybe standard security settings stand in the way here?

Find further information regarding this here on developers.google.com.

That Mixed Content is fine. There's even no other way, as some Mediatheks are only serving over that (afaik).

To be honest, if have absolutely no clue why it doesnt work.

Could you try an other Browser please?

Works fine with Firefox 53.0.3 (64-Bit), what could be wrong with Chromium? …

Edit: “Bad Chrome hack” can be found here.

I don't know. It works flawless with Chromium on ArchLinux for me.

That's just strange – thanks for your patience though!

For others affected: A nice workaround uses vlc player, just right click on the player button, choose “Copy Link Address” and in vlc play it as a network stream.

Can you play it in a new tab?

dessert1 commented 7 years ago

No, the player gets grayed out after a second.

So it's definitely unrelated to MVW and therefore I can close it.
