(In reply to nucrap from comment #100) Why is this marked as FIXED? Is it already the default in new firefox releases on Linux? Yes. This bug enabled it in builds (meaning it was capable of being turned on at all) and bug 886181 enabled it by default for Firefox 26 and later. It's been on by default for 4 major releases now. The current extended support release (ESR) is based on Firefox 24, so that branch doesn't have it on by default yet, though it is available to be turned on via about:config. Generally, you should be using the normal current release, however.

In general we try to limit the number of supported formats. Web developer refusal to support webm compelled us to add support for h.264 in mp4. I haven't heard a similar argument for h.264 in mpeg-ts. Also, we're implementing the Media Source extensions (bug 778617) which make is straightforward to remux ts as mp4 in client-side script for playback in the video element. So this is a use case which can be addressed without native support. If you think native support for mpeg-ts is important, the following steps are the best way to further that goal: - Open a new bug specifically for it, rather than arguing either way in this bug. - Provide a factual argument why this is important. - Provide a patch implementing the new feature.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1051559]
(In reply to Alessandro Decina from comment #56) (In reply to Chris Pearce (:cpearce) from comment #54) I built latest trunk on my Fedora box this morning with --enable-gstreamer, and I still get the following test failure in content/media/test/test_buffered.html: TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL| unknown test url | owl.mp3: First range end should be media end - got 3.368, expected 3.3698 I will look into this, but isn't the resolution we're checking a bit too high? Some consumers of the audio content may rely on the duration being accurate, like web apps using the decoded file via WebAudio or MediaStreams API for example. Do all the backends report exactly that duration or is it just that the test written against a specific backend? Hmm... The Windows Media Foundation backend is reporting a duration of 3.343673 or that file, and content/media/test/manifest.js lists its duration as 3.29. :{ Anyway, the test that's failing is: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/content/media/test/test_buffered.html?force=1#34 This is checking if video.buffered.end(0)==video.duration I think you can make this test pass by changing GStreamerReader::GetBuffered() to cap the range end time to the media duration here: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/content/media/gstreamer/GStreamerReader.cpp#601 I see that GStreamerReader::GetBuffered() is using gst_element_query_convert()... Does gst_element_query_convert() just do a byteoffset/length*duration estimation, or is it using some deeper understanding of the stream in order to get more accurate byte-to- timestamp mappings? If gst_element_query_convert() is just doing an estimation, you could just use GetEstimatedBufferedTimeRanges() [http://mxr.mozilla.org /mozilla-central/source/content/media/VideoUtils.h#142] instead, it's used in other backends already to estimate the buffered ranges, and caps the end time of the buffered ranges to the duration. I tested this, I removed by gstreamer plugins and test_can_play_type_mpeg.html fails across the board. Is it failing in the expected way? Yep. Yes 3gpp was copied there from the list of codecs supported by GONK i think. I'll remove it. Great, thanks! And we should also refuse to play the file if either the audio or video stream are present but of unsupported formats as well... Does our GStreamer backend already do this? Attachment #72711 [details] [diff] does this, although i'm not sure the behaviour is 100% right. Thanks!

Mochitests timeout in test_buffered for me now though, and the fix I suggested of clamping the buffered ranges at duration didn't seem to fix the test_buffered failure either. :{ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1051559 Title: Build Firefox with GStreamer support Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “iceweasel” package in Debian: New Status in “firefox” package in Fedora: Unknown Bug description: Building Firefox with GStreamer support would provide support for a lot of websites that use h264.

I built latest trunk on my Fedora box this morning with --enable- gstreamer, and I still get the following test failure in content/media/test/test_buffered.html: TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL| unknown test url | owl.mp3: First range end should be media end - got 3.368, expected 3.3698 (In reply to Henri Sivonen (:hsivonen) from comment #5) (In reply to Chris Double (:doublec) from comment #3) I think we should enable GStreamer in Linux builds even if we don't support H.264 in the other platforms yet. Things to be resolved before we can do this though: 1) Get the mochitest media tests passing. There's a H.264 video file in the tests already. Almost there. 2) Ensure Firefox still runs on Linux distributions that don't have GStreamer or have older versions. I haven't done this. 3) Check that we have new enough GStreamer libraries on build machines. We don't have any GStreamer libs on our build machines. We should get our regression tests running, even if we're not shipping builds with GStreamer enabled ourselves. 4) Check that when MP4, H.264 and AAC support is present, canPlayType() behaves as in other H.264 and AAC-supporting browsers. See bug 760140. This is tested by our mochitest content/media/test/test_can_play_type_mpeg.html I checked and this test is passing, so we're reporting that we can at least all the things that we should. 5) Test that when both H.264 and AAC decoders are absent, canPlayType() behaves like in Firefox today even if an MP4 demuxer is present. I tested this, I removed by gstreamer plugins and test_can_play_type_mpeg.html fails across the board. 6) Test that MPEG4 Visual, MPEG2 or other non-H.264, non-AAC encumbered codecs do not get exposed to the Web as a side effect. I'm not sure that this is the case. I see that 3gpp is listed in GStreamerFormatHelper::mCodecs, we don't want that being exposed in canPlayType or for it to be playable. It's also doesn't look like the GStreamer backend is whitelisting only the codecs that we want to support though. We'd want to only support H264, AAC and MP3, so as to prevent further format proliferation. For example this video plays with GStreamer, but shouldn't: http://www.tools4movies.com/dvd_catalyst_profile_samples/Harold%20Kumar%203%20Christmas%20bionic%20fast.mp4 The video stream here is MPEG-4 part 2. No other browsers play that file; we can but refuse to in the Windows Media Foudation backend (bug 839055). And we should also refuse to play the file if either the audio or video stream are present but of unsupported formats as well...

Sorry I'm late to the discussion. There's something that hasn't been said that I want to clarify: GStreamer does take ABI compatibility very seriously. 0.10 was released in 2005 and we broke ABI compatibility for the first time now with 1.0. When we do break ABI compatibility, we make sure that older and newer versions are parallel-installable. This was the case for 0.8 vs 0.10 and it's the case today with 0.10 vs 1.0. There's a patch in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=806917 to support GStreamer 1.0. I'm going to review it in the next few days and try to get it landed. Keeping compile time compatibility with 0.10 and 1.0 should be relatively easy. If people think that runtime compatibility with both 0.10 and 1.0 is essential, I can look into that too. We could dinamically probe and load GStreamer or even have two distinct backends using MPAPI. About the security concerns, the upstream gst community is fairly receptive to any kind of patches, and there's some overlap with debian/ubuntu/fedora developers, so those distro usually get the latest and greatest gst fairly quickly. In addition to that, we could potentially consider importing the ogg/webm/h264 gst plugins in m-c so there's even more control over those. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1051559 Title: Build Firefox with GStreamer support Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “iceweasel” package in Debian: New Status in “firefox” package in Fedora: Unknown Bug description: Building Firefox with GStreamer support would provide support for a lot of websites that use h264.

I'd rather keep our existing backends/libraries for decoding Ogg and WebM unless there's a compelling reason to switch to using GStreamer for those formats. The only possible advantage I can see in using GStreamer for webm is performance on mobile platforms. I have seen ARM vendors spend time optimizing webm with their own codecs and some have announced webm hw support. GStreamer has pretty good support for vendor provided codecs in android/linux platforms. I do see your point though and realize that what I said above can be handled on a case by case basis with the media.prefer-gstreamer pref.

Keeping our existing libraries also ensures Firefox's media playback behaviour is more likely to remain consistent across all platforms. This makes sense.

Now that I look at it more, though, it looks like the current route to gstreamer 1.0 support in bug 806917 is to be able to build to support 0.10 or 1.0, not both.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1051559]
Based on the existing system requirements Firefox already has a hard minimum requirement of GTK+ 2.10 which was released in 2006 (I think), and it looks like it has been this way since Firefox 3. (see bug 418885 complaining about this, which someone should probably close out at this point) It looks like Ubuntu 6.06 LTS doesn't meet this, so 8.04 LTS looks like our current minimum Ubuntu LTS version. (please do correct me if I'm wrong here) That had gstreamer 0.10.18, which looks to have playbin2 (I think). My guess is that if gstreamer support 0.10.18 were added, and you could successfully run Firefox under Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (and thus probably other distros of that time), then gstreamer could be turned on by default without practically increasing any minimum system requirements beyond requiring users of some KDE-based distros to install gstreamer (which is often needed in current distros anyway). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1051559 Title: Build Firefox with GStreamer support Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “iceweasel” package in Debian: New Status in “firefox” package in Fedora: Unknown Bug description: Building Firefox with GStreamer support would provide support for a lot of websites that use h264.

Well according to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/19.0/system- requirements/ the actual GTK requirements are at 2.18 or higher.

(In reply to Bryan Quigley from comment #42) Well according to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/19.0/system-requirements/ the actual GTK requirements are at 2.18 or higher. Ah, I just looked at: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/system-requirements.html Which looks like it's actually the Firefox 14 system requirements. That's odd. Someone should probably fix that. :/ Which does already push us to Ubuntu 10.04+, Debian Squeeze+, and to RHEL 6+. Ok, forget about comment 40 then. If this is true then gstreamer could be enabled right now without practically impacting the stated minimum requirements. Might I suggest turning this on for Trunk builds for now and backing out for Aurora if no good solution for future distros that only have 1.0 available is found? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1051559 Title: Build Firefox with GStreamer support Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “iceweasel” package in Debian: New Status in “firefox” package in Fedora: Unknown Bug description: Building Firefox with GStreamer support would provide support for a lot of websites that use h264.

(In reply to Dave Garrett from comment #41) Now that I look at it more, though, it looks like the current route to gstreamer 1.0 support in bug 806917 is to be able to build to support 0.10 or 1.0, not both. So unless there's some way this could be changed to allow the same build to run in either, it looks like once gstreamer 1.0 support is in common use we'd be unable to support anything less unless two libraries were shipped and dynamically loaded based on detected gstreamer version. According to some people knowing more about GStreamer than I do it's pretty problematic to have 0.10 and 1.0 gstreamer mapped into one process as there are clashes in the implementation and you could expect crashes at runtime. On Linux distributions it's pretty easy to get different GStreamer in one process. For example libcanberra loads GStreamer itself usually and is also loaded into Firefox. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1051559 Title: Build Firefox with GStreamer support Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “iceweasel” package in Debian: New Status in “firefox” package in Fedora: Unknown Bug description: Building Firefox with GStreamer support would provide support for a lot of websites that use h264.

Bug 836243 changed the minimum required gstreamer version from 0.10.33 (2011-5-10) to 0.10.25 (2009-9-25). For Ubuntu, this means the minimum supported LTS release was changed from 12.04 to 10.04. The previous LTS, 8.04, is no longer supported on desktop and server support will be dropped in a couple months. Debian 6.0 (stable) is also now supported. Fedora 11 also now is supported (if I'm reading their site right). Two questions: 1) How many people are on distros older than these and using the official build? 2) Does Mozilla actually want to support any distros older than these in the official build? It looks like it might be practical to just set a minimum gstreamer version requirement of 0.10.25 for the official build and drop support for old no longer developer supported OSes. It's may not be worth it to maintain support for Linux users who haven't updated in over 3 years. A separate build with disabled gstreamer support could be put up somewhere for them if needed. Of course, if runtime loading (comment 34) is easily doable then that would be great, but dropping support for particularly old distros and actually getting it turned on would be better than not doing anything. Windows is set to get h.264 support ahead of Linux, which is not feeling very Tier-1-y at the moment. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1051559 Title: Build Firefox with GStreamer support Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “iceweasel” package in Debian: New Status in “firefox” package in Fedora: Unknown Bug description: Building Firefox with GStreamer support would provide support for a lot of websites that use h264.
