weather.com - weird audio loops during video
using Unstable on Win 8
https://weather.com/news/trending/video ... es-in-ruin
About 10 seconds in, the audio starts repeating "venues for last summers games lie in ruin" over and over and it repeats indefinitely, long after the video is over. So there appears to be an audio decoder problem here.
I've only seen this problem on their newsroom videos with narration. (Other videos like this don't exhibit the problem.)
Also tested on GChrome and no problems there.

Same on 27.1.1. With disabled MSE for MP4 video works fine.
Re: weather.com - weird audio loops during video
Thanks kizo, that does indeed clear up the problem. But it's just a workaround to disable MSE, which means no more Twitter video and embedded Youtube videos now limited to 360p or 720p.
So it's a case of robbing Peter to pay Paul. This is a legit MSE bug that would be nice to have fixed.

Re: weather.com - weird audio loops during video
I'm aware of various MSE + MP4 issues and am looking into them.
Re: weather.com - weird audio loops during video
Yeah, agree. It's almost as pulling down window by hand on the old car, instead just to push a button on new/modern one (btw I've been heard that some newest have even voice control for that)joe04 wrote:of robbing Peter to pay Paul
@Travis Thank you for your nice job, as always!

The HTML5 Media Tuner allows to set per/site exceptions for MSE. The linked video played ok for me with MSE for MP4 on globally, when that extension was set to HTML5 (without MSE) for weather.com.
I realize this too is a workaround, but it would certainly help while the issue is being fixed.
Re: weather.com - weird audio loops during video
Thanks coffebreak. I installed JustOff's extension, which is definitely a nicer workaround.
And thanks Travis for looking into it.

Belated edit to quote from here which I mis-attributed to trava90. Apologies to joe04 and trava90.

Re: weather.com - weird audio loops during video
Installed 27.4 today and now these videos are playing fine! (The links in my first post are no longer valid but plenty of others on the site at any time.)
Thanks, @trava90 for your work on improving video.
And, for those searching, ESPN videos have been playing fine for me since 27.3 (whereas they wouldn't even load in 27.1). It's great that PM's video capability is now on par with other browsers.
