User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0 SeaMonkey/2.53.9.1
Steps to reproduce:
Go to Bitchute and click a video to play it.
Actual results:
It goes to the video and you can see it's downloading the video from the server or something and then it says "Done" and doesn't play. You get the wavy Bitchute graphic playing in the middle of the screen like you're waiting for the video to play but it never starts and the graphic just keeps going. I looked at he web developer tab and it says there are errors with the video size format and there are other video errors.
Expected results:
Normally the video starts after a second of the wavy logo on screen. This was working no problem up until a few days ago when I upgraded to 2.53.10. I then reverted to 2.53.9.1 but the problem was still there. I am using the default Seamonkey user agent but I tried a Firefox user string ESR 60 and FF 57.0. No luck. Also tried an I.e. 11.0 user string. No luck. Bitchute works fine with Firefox.
BTW I use win7 x64 sp1. The version of Firefox I use is v94.01.
It is not a duplicate of that bug. That was about Youtube videos. This is about Bitchute videos that stopped playing a few weeks ago. Different platform. I don't have a problem playing Youtube videos.
