RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1368063

People

(Reporter: komarnitsky, Unassigned)

Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:86.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/86.0

Steps to reproduce:

Open https://www.groovehq.com/watch-demo, tried to play video on the page

Actual results:

Sound is ok, but video is not played (with and without hardware acceleration)

Expected results:

Video must be visible

Component: Untriaged → Audio/Video: Playback
Product: Firefox → Core

I tested it on Microsoft Edge and it worked as expected.

The video from the site is yuv444 (bug 1368063). Because we rely on the decoders provided by the platform we're on (Windows, MacOS, etc), we can't reliably decode this kind of video. The problem is that the site is trying to create a SoureBuffer but failing because this type isn't supported.

Form some logs while exploring this:
AddSourceBuffer(aType=video/mp4;codecs=avc1.f40020) [not supported]

I'll take a look at reaching out to the site, since this isn't something we can easily remedy without operating systems supporting this kind of media.
