Pale Moon forum

I have just updated to version 27.5.0 on Debian testing using Steven Pusser's deb package:
Version: 27.5.0~repack-1.

I have always had problem with viewing video on the bbc website under palemoon, but reloading the page
always used to work. But now the "circulating busy icon" is displayed continuously: looks like some sort of livelock.

Example: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/science-en ... ch-the-sun
Trying to inspect the element, I see at least one type error: "e.onerror is not a function".
Right click on the image shows:
"2.14.3 1829564.u

unknown

Error 2200

ContinuousPlayPluginHTML.1.22.0 "

I tried searching for any such Plugin but found nothing.

I see a few reports of problems with the bbc site and palemoon. I sthis some sort of problem with the linux version?

That "plugin" is most likely a server-side plugin on the BBC site.

No problem playing the video on Windows, to add a point of reference here.

That video works OK for me with PM 27.5.0 installed from pminstaller in Xubuntu 16.04 and Arch Linux Xfce with this shown on right click,when playing.

... I sthis some sort of problem with the linux version?

Just installed Pale Moon 27.5.0 manually via the tar-ball on a Devuan Jessie (MATE desktop environment). I don't have a problem playing the referenced video. So I don't think it to be a 'Linux problem'.

That video plays for me as well with no problems.

I'm using 64 bit linux Pale Moon 27.5.0 running in 64 bit linux Mint 18.2 (Sonya) Xfce.

Here with PM 27.4.2 on Gentoo Linux, the player tells me I need Flash. I have uMatrix and a few other addons but I enabled everything that seemed relevant…

Anyway thanks to the "Watch with MPV" addon (alias "mpv-youtube-dl-binding", installed thanks to the "Moon Tester Tool" addon) I can just click a button to watch it in my favourite player.

@tooshorttoolong The BBC site offers the option of a flash player or an HTML5 player. I use the HTML5 player.
