[Desktop-packages] [Bug 412647] Re: Firefox is not able to play mp4 video tags
Yes, but the only pratical point of adding gstreamer is adding support for H.264, since all the free formats are already natively supported (while other formats aren't interesting in firefox). Other softwares need gstreamer because is the only supported backend also for the free formats. Also, while flash is widely used, HTML5 video still is not, and there is still not a winner between H.264/Webm, so there is a point in supporting only free formats here - at least until/if H.264 definitively wins over Webm. -- 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/412647 Title: Firefox is not able to play mp4 video tags Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Fix Released Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: With firefox 3.5 html5 was introduced.

5.

There are several reasons why we decided to build the SDK against the system CRT msvcrt.dll, but the most important one is that if you decide to link against any of the VS ones you will be forced to distribute broken software. According to MS EULA you can't distribute yourself this system library (eg: msvcr100.dll) so your software is depending on a third party installer (Microsoft Visual C++ 20XX Redistributable Package). The GPL also forbids explicitely the redistribution of System Libraries (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.en.html#WindowsRuntimeAndGPL). How is this handled in Firefox? There is the option of rebuilding the SDK linking against msvcr100.dll, this would require on our side providing a gcc spec that links against moldnames100 and msvcr100 and rebuilding gcc so that libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll and libstdc++6.dll are linked against the new CRT and using the gcc spec in the toolchain. -- 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/412647 Title: Firefox is not able to play mp4 video tags Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Fix Released Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: firefox With firefox 3.5 html5 was introduced.

We ship the CRT files alongside our app. I don't think your reading of the EULA is correct. Those files are explicitly listed as redistributable, and historically you have been allowed to ship the DLL files with your application. The GPL wrinkle is tricky, that sounds like a big PITA. In any event, we ship Firefox under the MPL, so it's not an issue for us. -- 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/412647 Title: Firefox is not able to play mp4 video tags Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Fix Released Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: firefox With firefox 3.5 html5 was introduced.

(In reply to Ted Mielczarek [:ted] from comment #301) We ship the CRT files alongside our app. I don't think your reading of the EULA is correct.

(In reply to Sid from comment #298) Just in case, SDK is out. http://gstreamer.com/ In the Windows installation instructions they recommend removing the client app's dependency on MSVC2010's runtime DLL and using the “basic” C runtime which comes in every Windows system since Windows XP, and is named MSVCRT.DLL. See: Removing the dependency with the Visual Studio runtime http://docs.gstreamer.com/display/GstSDK/Installing+on+Windows We apparently ship with the MSVC 2010's RT, and switching runtimes makes me nervous... Were we to ship this on Windows, we may be best to build the SDK ourselves with MSVCRT2010 or get Collabora to build one with MSVCRT2010. -- 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/412647 Title: Firefox is not able to play mp4 video tags Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Fix Released Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: firefox With firefox 3.5 html5 was introduced.
