Audio-Streaming/Internet-Radio (HTML5) not working with the Linux version

Post by pm7pm » 2016-01-27, 20:49

It seems that Audio-Streaming/Internet-Radio (HTML5) is not working with the Linux version of Palemoon...

here some (german) examples:
http://www.klassikradio.de/webplayer
=> says that my browser is not supported anymore, and I should use a modern browser
http://www.radio.de -or- http://www.radio.com
=> nothing happens when I choose a radio station (loading and loading forever)
http://www.duden.de/rechtschreibung/Kaenguru
=> scroll to the middle of the page and click on the little "speaker" button (.mp3) for spelling => nothing happens

But it fully works with _Firefox_ on Linux, so all needed packages are installed! (gstreamer and others)
And the pages/streams work when Palemoon is running on _Windows_!

I've tested it with the previous version of Palemoon (25.x) and the latest (26.0), with the same results. :-(

Windows 7:
-----------
Firefox: working!
Palemoon: working!
IE11: working!

Linux (Manjaro):
----------------
Firefox: working!
Palemoon: NOT WORKING!
Midori: working!

This site works fine for me on v26 with a fresh profile on Manjaro.

Confirmed doesn't work for me. A check in the error console shows this:

Code: Select all

This works for me as well.

Pale Moon's implementation and support of GStreamer is different from Firefox's (in fact, Mozilla is removing GStreamer support entirely). Please ensure that you have gstreamer0.10 plugins and gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg installed. Also, ensure that GStreamer support is enabled by going to about:config and setting media.gstreamer.enabled to true.

Setting "media.gstreamer.enabled" to "true" was the solution for me! :-)
Now nearly all the given examples work... (even radio.de, but not radio.com)

THANK YOU!!! :thumbup:
