Hi,
when I use Safari, I automatically see YouTube and other websites videos
without using Flash (I installed an extension for that), and I also can
download a video just by right-clicking/download.
Now, with SM 2.20 (User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X
10.6; rv:23.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/23.0 SeaMonkey/2.20) when I check
the browser capabilities (www.youtube.com/html5) I have:
- tag video YES
- h.264 NO
- WebM YES
Is this correct? SM can't natively use h.264?
Reporting error?
SM 2.19/Windows shows green for all three. Surprising to see a later
version with fewer capabilities.
h.264 NO
h.264 is patent encumbered so Mozilla Firefox/SeaMonkey/etc does not
ship with a h.264 decoder. However if you have already installed a h.264
codec in your operating system, SeaMonkey (must be a really new version)
will use that to decode h.264.
Aha. Probably because I have the VLC media player.
