695226 - unable to watch movie trailers on trailers.apple.com

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 692759

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

(not sure where to file this, putting it here for triage.)

on trailers.apple.com, I can see the static pages just fine. When I click on "watch now", the black popup window appears correctly, and the audio plays correctly, but there is no video.

I picked a random set of trailers, at each different resolution provided, and was able to reproduce this problem with each movie trailer.

fyi: I'm running FF8.0b3 on mac 10.6.8.

I installed latest release (FF7.0.1) onto same mac, and I can now click/watch those same movie trailers without problems on trailers.apple.com.

This is a regression since FF7.0.1.

I also see the problem with a currentish Firefox nightly (10-14, OS X 10.6).

Moving over to Core::Plugins. A regression range would probably help here.

Meant to note: On at least one trailer the green MPAA screen at the beginning was frozen onscreen, the others I tried were just black. Dunno if that's relevant.

This is almost certainly a dup of bug 692759.
