Subject: bug#63173: Epiphany can't play videos
Date: Sat, 29 Apr 2023 11:00:50 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <a8bc4aa3-e333-7a39-4c6e-cbe52f754784@delgado.nrw> (raw)
Hi,
epiphany doesn't come with any codecs to play YouTube videos.
Epiphany is targeted at non-technical users, being able to
play videos from YouTube is an essential thing the browser should be
capable of.
Without the codecs, the package looks like it is broken/not properly
cared about. Especially as IceCat can play the videos out-of-the-box.
I don't know which package is the best suited, but I know that
including either of these as an input to epiphany gets the job done:
- gst-libav
- libva
- libx264
I can imagine that there are other packages that could also be used instead.
Regards,
Dominik
