Hello!
With PaleMoon 28.12 32-bit many videos on media homepages are not played. Instead the following error message is displayed:
"The downloaded manifest is invalid (error 1202)". The same page opened with FireFox works perfectly ok.
Can anybody help?
Windows 7 32bit (still...)
Example: https://wetter.orf.at/oes/wetterverlauf

Stupid useragent bug(on site). Make string param (about:config):
value:
Code: Select all
general.useragent.override.wetter.orf.at
Code: Select all

Re: PaleMoon not playing Videos
It plays for me fine in PM 28.12, if WebAssembly is enabled - though I did have to refresh the page one time.
(but if disabled, there is the error you describe)
Preferences -> Content, then in the JavaScript section, tick the box next to "Enable WebAssembly (WASM)"
Edit: Actually, I take it back: the video only plays sporadically.
It had seemed to work perfectly in a fresh profile, after which enabling WASM had seemed to fix things in my regular profile. But after repeated testing, not so. The error still loads sometimes, and sometimes goes away with a page refresh, sometimes not.

Re: PaleMoon not playing Videos
I can confirm both replies. Immediately after posting I tried the site agaiin - and it worked ok. Nevertheless I followed the advice by jars_ (about:config ...) and the error has not occured since then.
Thanks to you both!

Re: PaleMoon not playing Videos
It always fails for me unless I click on the video's maximize icon before the warning is displayed.
It then plays fine in subsequent reloads.

Hi!
Several other videos on that site are also affected by that bug. Now I have added the following string in about:config
general.useragent.override.orf.at with value proposed by jars_ and the error seems to be gone. Hope it stays that way.
