Pick a vid, any vid, and try to play it.
On my machine, the links work but the videos don't.
CTRL-I, "Media" tab, lists no videos, only PNG images -- presumably
because the "Play" button isn't actually a "Play" button, it's a link to
a script that doesn't work.
Works fine on Internet Exploiter.
Any ideas? Bad code or my settings?
It is indeed likely your settings. Here is my somewhat restricted
configuration:
Windows 7 Ultimate SP 1 (x64)
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:42.0) Gecko/20100101
SeaMonkey/2.39
"Advertise Firefox compatibility" disabled
Popups blocked
AdBlock Plus and Secret Agent extensions both enabled
Images from all domains enabled
Cookies allowed only from the requested domain
I am able to play the various videos with either Flash enabled or HTML5
Media enabled.
OK, my corresponding info:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:42.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/42.0
SeaMonkey/2.39
"Advertise Firefox compatibility" enabled
Unrequested popups blocked
AdBlock Plus normally enabled, but disabled for testing purposes
Load all images
First-party session cookies only (Edit | Preferences | Privacy &
Security | Cookies); Block Cookies from This Website (Tools | Cookie
Manager). As you know, the cookie manager is broken, so I can't change
the setting, and usatoday.com is not specifically listed at
chrome://communicator/content/permissions/cookieViewer.xul or
chrome://communicator/content/permissions/permissionsManager.xul.
Clearing cache and cookies and reloading does not help.
Shockwave Flash 20.0.0.306 and Shockwave for Director 12.2.3.183 both
installed, both show as current. Can't find any setting to enable Flash
vs. HTML5 vs. both.
When I click the "Play" button, nothing happens. No activity in the
status bar, no spinner, no throbber, nothing. Any ideas?
