Thinking about this, this machine has been up or sleeping since I

firefox from before I built ffmpeg.  I had assumed ffmpeg was just a
runtime dependency, but maybe firefox has to be restarted after it
is present.

Unfortunately, that is unliekly to help Vaclav - I think he already
had an older ffmpeg when he first noticed the problem.

Just a thought.  Is it possible by installing another package it ran
ldconfig and allowed ff to pick up a library that it missed before?

That sounds very plausible.  But again, I don't think it will help
Vaclav - he has updated things such as ffmpeg since he first saw the
problem.

I have the same problem.  I built ff57 and cannot play:

http://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/~bdubbs/files/big_buck_bunny.mp4

It plays fine with chromium.

I also cannot play any videos on cnn.com. I tried loading flash, but that does not help. For cnn I keep getting messages about the site not being encrypted. I suspect some addition in the page may be causing that.

FF57 plays youtube fine.

On my workstation I have ff48 and it plays both cnn and bunny OK.

On FF57 I also have the problem that I cannot select the url with my mouse.
