Bug#567311: epiphany-browser: Unable to use YouTube with HTML5 Video Player.

[Paul Menzel]

Subject: epiphany-browser: Unable to use YouTube with HTML5 Video Player.
Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 2.29.6-1
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Dear Debian folks,


YouTube started opt-in experimental HTML5 support [1]. Activating it and
trying to play a video the player loads and you see it loading and
showing HTML5 infinitely.

I do not know which fault this is. It looks like YouTube’s one, when
they provide the HTML5 player. I also do not know, if this bug should be
filed against Epiphany or WebKit.

But I guess tracking it somewhere in the Debian BTS and making it easy
to find for people having problems activating this feature is quite
useful. So if you tell me whose fault this is and to what upstream I
should report this too we could reference that and keep people informed.


Thanks,

Paul
