[Bug 1323822] Re: Firefox can not play some WebM videos generated by avconv on Trusty
I did not find any libav 9.14 package for Ubuntu (any version), so I finally compiled it myself on Trusty, from mainstream source. After converting the source video with the same command-line, it outputs the attached webm file, which works correctly in Firefox. In order to check that the issue did not come from the patches of Ubuntu (or the compilation options I used), I also compiled version 9.13 from source, and reproduced the issue in Firefox. So version 9.14 of libav solves the issue. It's certainly the same issue as in the libav bugtracker mentioned above : a bug in libav that makes it generate corrupt webm files.

[Bug 1323822] Re: Firefox can not play some WebM videos generated by avconv on Trusty
For what it's worth, if it might help somebody : As a temporary workaround before this issue is fixed, I succesfully use Docker (http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/docker.io) to convert my videos in an isolated environment. I prefer not to install ffmpeg or upgrade libav through PPAs on my main system (Some other applications depend on libav and I don't want to break them), and it's a very lightweight solution compared to starting a complete virtual machine. I used a Trusty image provided by the official repo of Docker (https://index.docker.io/_/ubuntu/) and configured the ffmpeg PPA in it. After commiting my modified image (called trusty-ffmpeg below), I can run the conversion with a command-line like : sudo docker run -i -t -v /home/mossroy/Videos:/host trusty-ffmpeg ffmpeg -i /host/P5270914.MOV /host/P5270914-trusty-docker.webm (note that I use the -v option to map the path of my video to a /host directory inside the docker container) It gives the same result as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libav/+bug/1323822/+attachment/4121477/+files/P5270914-trusty-ffmpeg.webm , which works properly in Firefox.

After a few tests, I suspect the issue might come from the audio track.

[Bug 1323822] Re: Firefox can not play some WebM videos generated by avconv on Trusty
The package gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad is installed in version 0.10.23-7.2ubuntu1. But I thought the webm implementation of Firefox was built in Firefox itself (because it's a free codec), and that gstreamer was used only for h.264 videos (due to patent issues) ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1323822 Title: Firefox can not play some WebM videos generated by avconv on Trusty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1323822/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1323822] Re: Firefox can not play some WebM videos generated by avconv on Trusty
I tested to convert my video with ffmpeg instead of libav. For that, I installed ffmpeg (version 1.2.6-1~trusty1) from this PPA : ppa:jon-severinsson/ffmpeg , on Trusty The result is attached, and works correctly with Firefox.

[Bug 1323822] Re: Firefox can not play some WebM videos generated by avconv on Trusty
The mkvinfo outputs show a difference in the Default Duration field, which seems to be incorrect on Trusty. I tried to force it, by adding a -r 29.970 parameter to avconv : the field's value is modified but still different from Precise, and the video does not play better -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1323822 Title: Firefox can not play some WebM videos generated by avconv on Trusty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1323822/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I found this bug report on Firefox : https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=868797 It might be related, but I don't think it's the same issue : manually sliding the video in the middle does not make it play.

Just to be sure I read this right, you're saying that the file generated in Precise plays okay?

Yes, you got it right : the file generated in Precise plays ok in Firefox (on Precise, Trusty, Windows, Android etc). You can try by yourself by clicking on the attachment. But the file generated in Trusty does not play on Firefox (at least on Trusty), even if it does in Totem, VLC, and Chromium. You can also try the attachment. I forgot to mention that the video codec is VP8, and audio codec is Vorbis -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1323822 Title: Firefox can not play some WebM videos generated by avconv on Trusty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1323822/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
