User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/43.0 SeaMonkey/2.40 Build ID: 20160120202951 Steps to reproduce: Tried to play any Brightcove video embedded in a website. Mostly the videos are from UK news sites ie Mirror.Co.UK. Actual results: Embedded video of Brightcove will not play in Seamonkey browser on my desktop. I have just noticed this in the last Couple of months. It will play on IE but not Seamonkey. Most of the videos are from news websites in UK ie Mirror.Co.UK. I am currently using Seamonkey ver. 2.40 as there has not been an update in a long time. When I click on the video to play it, the screen just shows it buffering with the spinning circle. I can leave the page up for an hour and it just looks like it is buffering and will not start (no error message). I can always find the video on Youtube and the same video will play there fine. I am using Windows 7 as my OS. Seamonkey has HTML5 and I also have Flash loaded. Try this video (if it is still there) http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/secret-terrifying-13-foot-avatar-9484188 Expected results: Video should play.

REPRODUCIBLE with en-US SeaMonkey 2.40 final Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:43.0) from official download page, Gecko/20100101 Firefox/ 43.0 Build 20160120202951, (Default Classic Theme) on German WIN7 64bit: 1. Launch Browser → menu ˋTools → Switch Profile → Create and use new user profileˊ 2. Visit <http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/secret-terrifying-13-foot-avatar-9484188> → Click “Play”-icon in movie preview → Confirm all warnings if necessary Expected: movie starts to play Actual: endless loops of buffering, in Status Bar endless “Transferring ...”, but video will not play a) NOT / no longer reproducible with official English SeaMonkey 2.46 RC (Build 9) (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:49.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/49.0 Build 20161213183751(Default Classic Theme) on German WIN7 64bit b) Has nothing to do with movie itself, <http://brightcove04.brightcove.com/34/4221396001/201612/2650/4221396001_5253551184001_5253548264001.mp4> plays fine c) I did not find a security preference where changes heal the problem, but I did not test intensively d) I don't know what the root of the problem might be. e) CLIQZ 1.8.0 and 1.9.0 show similar symptoms, so probably not a “SM only” problem. @reporter: Can you confirm WORKSFORME with 2.46 from <http://archive.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/candidates/2.46-candidates/build9/>?
