1056419 - Sandboxing Mac plugin breaks Fake Video Encoder

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1055308

(Core :: WebRTC: Audio/Video, defect)

Description

[Eric Rescorla (:ekr)]

The Sandboxing code causes the fake video encoder not to load.

Probable suspect:
otool -L /Users/ekr/dev/gecko/gecko-dev/obj-x86_64-apple-darwin12.5.0/dom/media/gmp-plugin/libfake.dylib

Removing the sandbox activation code in GMPChild.cpp fixes the problem.

Steven,

What is the status of this?

I suspect this might be the same as what was found on this bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1054704#c24

Where the OSX version can't follow a symlink to load the fake gmp plugin.

I think I've already fixed this at bug 1055308.

[Eric Rescorla (:ekr)]

The patch in bug 1055308 seems to fix this.
