Pale moon doesn't open videos in some websites

Unread post by rocket7 » 2014-05-28, 23:10

Hello everybody, i liked Pale Moon a lot, that's why i registered for this forum to ask for a help.

I, like everyone (i think) enjoy movies online, so when i opened my favorit website for movies i had a bad surprise, it didn't open. It says "no video with supported format and MIME type found".

The website is this: http://movietube.cc/watch.php?v=vnzKsfbEP8Q

And another website insted of open it, it launches the donwload option

This is the link: http://vidbull.com/sqjli1z6819x.html

(sorry if it can't be posted this kind of material, i had to show the problem)

With the regular firefox everything works fine.

I use linux Mint 13, 32 bits

Thank you once again for Pale Moon!

You may need to install/enable plugins like gecko-mediaplayer or Flash.

Thanks for the reply

Well, i try not to use flash player. I Hate flash player, but if i had no alternative...

I have gecko media player installed on Tool/Add-ons/mplayerplug-in is now gecko-mediaplayer 1.0.4

With the regular flashplayer i open those videos above without flashplayer. So i thought with Pale Moon i would do the same

Here I get a successful playback with the VLC browser plugin.

With flash you open something without flash? Please state clearly whatever you're trying to say.

Do you mean that in another browser (firefox) it works?

Gstreamer and its plugins are needed to watch the videos (mp4, etc.) embedded in browser. Tested both of the sites you linked and they work for me and no flash included!

In about:config you can try to set media.gstreamer.enabled to true
