Saying “I have packman as repo” is nice, but od you use it? E.g. did you do the “Vendor Switch” to it.

Maybe you did, but then you did not say so (and we are not clairvoyant).
Maybe it has nothing to do with your problem, but you mention it, thus you seem to think that Packman may play a role her. When it does, then only when you use it.

To compare. it is useless to subscribe to a library when you never go there to read a book.

#4

Thanks, I forgot to switch vendors.:shame:

I changed the ff. to packman version:

  • libavcodec57
  • libavcodec58
  • libavformat57
  • libavformat58
  • libavdevice57
  • libavdevice58

Used “with vendor change” as Conflict Resolution on dependency hell.

Every videos now working, but html5test still says my browser doe not have MPEG-4 ASP and H.265 codecs. It only now have WebM and H.264. Is this normal?

#5

IMNSHO, that’s not necessary.

  • The only relevant packages that I have loaded from “Packman - Essentials” are:

Yes.

#6

https://html5test.opensuse.org/ causes instant page break and segfault for my FF.

Works Ok with Vivaldi browser.

#7

Works fine here on Leap 15.2 with Firefox:
515 points…

#8

Same here. I do not know what it all means, but it says 515 out of 571.

#9

Works fine here with firefox:

falkon 532 out of 571
konqueror 532 out of 571
firefox 517 out of 571
chromium 536 out of 571

#10

Probably not related to the problem you report but using “https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/multimedia:/apps/openSUSE_Leap_15.2/” and “http://packman.inode.at/suse/openSUSE_Leap_15.2/” at the same time bears some risks (multimedia: is a factory repository).
