Firefox 84.0.2. - Videos blocked on several sites

[karlmistelberger]

In the meantime I've continued to track down the issue: webm videos are playing fine, mp4 videos are causing problems.

And:

On the 84.0.2 from OpenSuseRepo (http://download.opensuse.org/reposit...USE_Leap_15.2/) the issue with mp4 is there.


On the 84.0.2 from Mozilla directly (https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/...nux-x86_64/de/) mp4 is playing without problems.

What's the difference between the two versions?

Version for Leap is broken: http://download.opensuse.org/reposit...USE_Leap_15.2/ You need to contact openSUSE maintainers.

OK,

how would I do that? I've tried to find out the package maintainer via the repo data, but could not find a contact there.

Or should I just file another bug report, this time via

https://bugzilla.opensuse.org

?

There is no official package for Leap 15.2. Thus I am unsure how to proceed. Try here https://build.opensuse.org/package/s...MozillaFirefox or try https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/

If you want to use newer packages Tumbleweed is the preferred solution.

Maybe you can go with Leap and try to add codecs from my Tumbleweed list:

Version 84 works well with the above list. You would want to delete your version and user the higher one from Tumbleweed.
