Using Pale Moon version 26.5.0 on laptop with Windows XP SP3. When trying to view any video on http://www.weather.com, I get "Error: No valid source could be found". Screen shot attached. The exact url is
https://weather.com/storms/winter/video ... ma-highway .
On Chrome it works fine. Any help how to fix will be appreciated.

Weather.com likely moved to using html5+MSE for their videos. That isn't supported in Pale Moon 26.5.0.

That means there is no add-on or plugin available to fix this?

You can probably fix it by upgrading to the current PM version.

EDIT: Nevermind, you're using XP.

Off-topic:
You know, I was becoming extremely curious as to how long it would take for the first post to be made in 2017 regarding ANYTHING to do with Windows XP ...lol. It has certainly dried up here.
