Hello,
Could someone confirm he is able to display
html5 video using seamonkey (2.49.4)?
Trying to display vimeo.com, seamonkey say
player error...
(obviously there is not flashplayer within BLFS anymore).
Notes:
1) using seamonkey I am able to watch youtube video.
2) using falkon (3.0.1) , I can see BOTH youtube.com and vimeo.com
(so we can say, HTML5 is properly configured within (my) falkon)
3) neither firefox (68.0.1) or epiphany (3.32.4) are installed
(only falkon and seamonkey).
Most certainly I overlooked something about seamonkey build,
a hint will be very welcome.
HTML5 is one of many standards that Seamonkey doesn't support. A new
upstream release is being worked out to solve this and well over a
hundred security issues (since it's based off an ancient Firefox ESR).
It's being rebased off of Firefox-68 ESR, which does support HTML5
video. It's using the VP9 codec when you go to YouTube I believe.
