[opensuse] Missing h.264 support in Firefox 44.0
Hi I got a problem with playing videos in firefox 44.0 under opensuse leap 42.1. I installed codecs like written on the http://opensuse-guide.org/codecs.php website, but the problem still exists. When I open youtube's html5 support site, I can see, that the codecs are correctly installed and working, excepted H.264. Firefox can play html5 videos, but other sites like vimeo or tumblr can't. All values under about:config -> mediasource.*.enabled are true. Youtube can play html5 videos, but many other sites like facebook, tumblr etc. can't. How could I let firefox play mp4 videos? Thank you for your help :) -- Med venlig hilsen / Kind regards Krisztián Angyal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

On my machine on Leap, I have an out-of-the-box install with FF 44 also, and just tested playing a few videos on vimeo. I don't have chromium-pepper-flash installed nor have installed anything from http://opensuse-guide.org/codecs.phpvlc-codecs. I can play the H.264 video found here: http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/tests/video.html. One thing I did install from Packman was gstreamer-plugins-libav, as that provides mp4 playback as well as allows for mp3 playback within webpages in FF. I'm not sure if there is an H.264 codec within that package. sdm -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Since Firefox 43 you should have ffmpeg and libavcodec from packman instead the original repositories. Firefox tries to use libavcodec directly and the fallback to GStreamer (libav) does not correctly work because the ffmpeg compiled with openSUSE is supporting weird combinations of codecs so Firefox _thinks_ it might be able to play H.264 while it does not in many cases.

I just notice this thread.. sorry to have openned an other :-) I usually run zypper dup --from "Packman Repository" after every install. I think I did this time, but may be not. reading your post I noticed libavformat56, and some other libraries come from opensuse, not packman. So I run again zypper dup --from "Packman Repository" with a lot of changes I had to restart FF, but now it works as expected thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

not really, alas. this mp4 video plays fine: http://dodin.info/piwigo/picture.php?/111861-20151109_mg_garage/category/594... but html5 should be able to choose between various video formats. This page http://lesgazelles.fr/index.php?n=Site.VideosGazelles gives choice between mp4 and ogv. but as you may see (at least it's for me), one hear the sound, but don't see the image. making a right clic on the frame, one can choose "donwload video" and see the video is mp4, and a direct link to the video gives no sound and noimage http://lesgazelles.fr/uploads/Site/20130926-florida-gaz-03-haventfound.mp4 may be the mp4 format is not the right one, but then why not play the ogv file http://lesgazelles.fr/uploads/Site/20130926-florida-gaz-03-haventfound.ogv that works perfectly ? jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Well... I could verify my hypothesis. With the good mp4, the web site works: http://lesgazelles.fr/index.php?n=Site.VideosGazelles but then, the ogv file become unuseful... If you have only a handful of file, ok, but if you get large collection... the script I use (with the correct handbrake-cli syntax) is: !/bin/bash echo usage: movtomp4-html5.sh *.MOV mkdir html5 for a ; do b=`echo "$a" | cut -d'.' -f1` ; HandBrakeCLI -i "$a" -t 1 --angle 1 -c 1 -o "html5/$b.mp4" -f mp4 -O -w 960 --crop 0:0:0:0 --loose-anamorphic --modulus 2 -e x264 -q 22 -r 30 --pfr -a 1 -E av_aac -6 dpl2 -R Auto -B 160 -D 0 --gain 0 --audio-fallback ac3 --encoder-level="3.1" --encoder-profile=high --verbose=1 done exit I don't know in it what is the part really mandatory, but this syntax is read by all the browser I'm aware of... jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

You're absolutely right. None of the videos under these links can be played as they are, but after right-clicking. But anyways, now I can at least play a lot more videos than I could before I switched to the Packman repo... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Freeze is almost always kernel related, so trying newer kernel from Kernel:stable would be the first step. It may help with touchpad too. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I have no freezes on my Asus (quite similar to yours, same Nvidia, plus intel, but with 4G and normal display of 1920 x 1080) and, because current kernel does not recognize the touchpad, tried 4.3 and 4.4 kernel. I was not able to make them boot to GUI, only to konsole, probably because of the installed nvidia-drivers (via suse-prime). I was not able to install suse-prime successfully with those newer kernels....

If you install a different kernel, you have to, one way or another, make sure that the NVIDIA kernel modules get rebuilt. Either install the prebuilt packages (if any) for that kernel, or install the driver manually. -- Gertjan Lettink, a.k.a.

I haven't tried a new kernel yet. New data point is that Gnome desktop ran okay for two days. I rebooted back to Plasma 5 and KDE 4x desktops and the freezes are back. Any desktop wisdom in this case? Thanks, Allen

I have tried several settings in System Settings - Display and Monitor - Compositor now. The system was by default in OpenGL2.0. I changed it to OpenGL3.1. System still froze. I unchecked another box in that menu about tearing and vsync while leaving OpenGL3.1. That lead to 6 hours before the next freeze. It did bugger up some window title bars to do this, but not fatal problem. I will keep trying other settings in that menu to see if anything makes it better yet. It appears KDE display settings for this very high resolution (intrinsically touch-screen) display is the problem area. I wonder if KDE is working on this issue for this newest hardware.

Not sure. I don't have full crashes/lockups, but my experience with a desktop (i7-6700K, GTX 980 + 4k Monitor) are quite bad. Both plasmashell and kwin were constantly crashing like mad. I've updated to the KDE_Frameworks5 and KDE_Qt5 repos from the KDE: project, things are more stable now, but still far from perfect :( I haven't played with the compositor settings so far.

I have now tried all Compositor choices, including diabling it. None was better than the first one I tried, and none lasted more than six hours before freezing up. If there are no other KDE settings I should try, then it says KDE is dead for this laptop. Thanks for the good feedback I got, Allen

When I run gnome-control-center 3.16.3 (no other version offered from repositories), I do not get the "Look and Feel" menu options.
Web searching for this problem is not giving anything.
Any advice out there?

All, I have limped along with numerous kernels for 42.1 on this laptop. Repo kernel/STABLE offerings have been worse than the standard upgrade kernels. Problem is complete hardware freeze ups with no log record of what happens. I was getting week long uptimes with kernel 4.1.31, but the recent upgrade to kernel 4.1.34 regressed to a few hours of uptime between freezes. I report this in hopes attention is paid to getting opensuse to run robustly on the exceptional hardware of this laptop. Below is an email first raising this problem earlier this year and detailing the hardware. Anyone have success with this problem? Allen ---- On Sun, 13 Mar 2016, Allen Wilkinson wrote:

Hi, You have a decent laptop :) I think the problem is the Intel skylake modules that are not included on that version of kernel. Either update it to the new kernel (i believe 4.5 or newer, please CMIIW) or you download the modules and install it in your current kernel version. Download intel firmware sklgucver6.1 dan skldmcver1.26 from http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree... You need to have kernel-source and gcc to compile it. Also you have discrete graphics that might also need attention. Maybe you need to add "nomodeset i915.modeset=0 nouveau.modeset=0" on your grub line first, and after installing the intel firmware you can modify it to just add "nouveau.modeset=0" Hope that help, -- Edwin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
