User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:128.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/128.0
Steps to reproduce:
hello,
I'm using the official linux x64 binaries. I also upgraded my system ffmpeg from 6.1.2 to 7.1.1
Actual results:
as a result, all video playback in seamonkey was disabled
Expected results:
seamonkey should pull the new ffmpeg-7 headers, they were recently added to firefox
I found this firefox pullrequest to include the ffmpeg-7 headers: https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D206922
trying to cc Frank-Rainer Grahl - can you please have a look at the above issues with ffmpeg-7 at runtime?
updating the headers should be easy, but I'm lacking the confidence to backport the runtime support.
website as an example to stop working with ffmpeg-7 at runtime: https://www.ardmediathek.de/
its public tv station, hopefully no geoblocking? any video there will stop working for me, unless I downgrade to ffmpeg-6

This will not happen fast. Not much time and needs prerequisites and source changes because the api changed.
indeed, the runtime support is propably going to be a time consuming effort.
ping me anytime if you need help with testing any possible patches
