I have installed chromium using this: [URL] -- spots repo. I have signed up to the trial for html5 here: [URL] and it says I am in the trial. However I am still unable to play a number of ..... videos not understanding exactly how I would receive the updates to enable html5 I thought I would wait a few days and see what happens but alas after a week nothing has happened.
View 5 RepliesTo get Chromium to work with HTML5 in uBuntu you have to first uninstall the free "open source only" package "chromium-codecs-ffmpeg" that ships with chromium (not chrome) with only supports OGG and WEBM video Code:sudo apt-get remove --purge chromium-codecs-ffmpegand install the non-free proprietary version of the package named chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-nonfree which has full support for MP3 and MP4 codecs . . . Code: sudo apt-get install chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-nonfreeAfter searching and Google ing like crazy . . . I couldn't find the solution spoon feed to me but was able to figure out the issue with mp3 and mp4 html5 playback in chromium and figured I would spoon feed it to everyone else! Enjoy.

This doesn't happens if I have a previous instance of chromium opened in the usual way, without any flag. In this case if I open another chromium window with the --enable-gpu-rendering flag it's display looks ok, but I can't figure out what's the problem and how could this be fixed if there's solution for it of course.

Recently, while trying to do a bank transaction using chromium browser, I had to abandon it midway because I was told that java script was not enabled.
Got the same message in FF as well. Then, I went back to Windows & completed the job using IE.
How to enable the java script on chromium? I don't find an option in the browser's settings.
Edit: I found later that java script was in fact enabled in FF; but the Bank page still popped out the message that it was not enabled.
I just did a fresh install of 9.10 and after running and installing the updates (222) i rebooted but ubuntu will no longer load.

In Ubuntu I could do this in the Updates tab of Software Sources, but in Linux Mint there is no Updates tab. I just want to install kernel version 2.6.38-9.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe reason why I'm pissed because so many people out there that use Linux aways say Microsoft sucks. But I have more problems with Linux, at least with Microsoft problems I can solve. Now since I got that out of my system, here's my issue.
I just installed LTS 10.04 everything was working fine, I have an ATI 5700 card installed so I installed the ATI drivers not the open stuff. After install the drivers worked perfectly no problems. After several days of using the computer, I said I'll run some updates. I did so and rebooted my computer and BOOOM now my ATI drivers do not work. I can't enable desktop effects, can't use cube etc. Not only that but if I go to the prior build it won't work there either. If this was windows 7, I would just reinstall and it would work.
Luckily for me I made a image of my Ubuntu 10.04 and did a restore and everything went back to normal because I restored the image prior to the update. Now just for kicks I ran the updates again to be sure the updates did indeed break the vid drivers. Yep, after the updates ran, reboot, BOOM broke again. What gives? Is it the kernel updates? If so then I guess I'll run updates without updating the kernel. By the way I did try to install the drivers that come with Ubuntu but that work either. I guess I have to do the restore again. I rather use the ATI drivers vs the open stuff.
Questions are the updates unstable? If it is then why release? Can anyone provide any solutions? Should I run updates but skip Kernal changes? If not then what is blowing up the drivers?
I recently installed Avant Window Navigator and worked fine. My problem is that I don't have on any preferences tab the option to Alert me when Window receive updates. It seems the new version does not have it as previous versions.I was wondering how can I enable the Alerts when Updates are received in windows.PS. I checked all tabs and seems this option is missed.I forgot to mention that I am also new at GNU/Linux.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI often use the option in Chromium to create 'application shortcuts'. These are instances of Chromium that make a website look more like an app by not including most of Chromium's toolbars. I use it for gmail and google docs and spreadsheets and calendar. In 11.04 I have set up Desktop launchers and copied them across to the Launcher (what an odd way to add something to the launcher, why no right-click 'add launcher' option?)
The problem is that the launcher thinks all these apps are chromium (which they are really, but I would like them to be seen as separate apps). If I minimize my gmail window, a little triangle appears next to the chromium icon, not the gmail icon. To get the window back, I have to click on the Chromium icon. Clicking on the gmail icon launches a new instance of it (also tied to the Chromium icon).
I made a shortcut with chromium browser to listen.grooveshark.com. This is great as it's almost like the grooveshark VIP desktop application like this. However AWN dock groups it with other chromium windows like this:Kuvakaappaus.jpg
Is it possible to force AWN to group this specific chromium window under the Grooveshark launcher that I have in the dock? Turning off grouping does not solve this either, as it just shows grooveshark as another chromium window.

But this does not seem to be possible in HTML5. I am guessing that there is a way to do this, searching the web suggests object or embed, but these create a new page within my original page, which is not what I want.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using pepperflash and the youtube HTML5 player on Debian Sid, on an amd64 machine. I am having a problem where the video will just black out every so often, like every minute or two, the audio still works and I need to either go forward or backward in the video to get the image back. I have noticed it on youtube videos which I suppose uses the HTML5 player not pepperflash.
View 4 Replies View RelatedYouTube now automatically serves html5 content if it detects you are using firefox version 40 or above. Unfortunately as a result, all youtube videos are now served to me at 360p resolution, and there is no way to change that on the youtube web page.
Before upgrading firefox, I could watch hd videos using flash. The ability to switch to html5 was also available on [URL] .... But with the later version of firefox, the option to switch back to using flash is no longer there on that page.
When I could view both flash and html5 videos (with the older firefox), I found that html5 played back very poorly. flash, despite being a known resource hog, actually played back better (with no h/w acceleration of flash in linux, I resigned myself to expect to use faster PCs to run flash hd at full screen). Which is a great pity, as we all know flash is disappearing, but it appears I now have an even bigger issue with html5. Where's the hd video?
So how can I get a better html5 experience? My machine is an i3 with GTS250 nVidia running Stretch.
The problem of only getting 360p resolution is probably a bug in firefox. Once I can get hd, I am then uncertain if firefox could handle it.
The advice of setting 'media.mediasource.enabled' in about:config to true to get higher resolutions did not work for me.
When I do that, the [URL] .... says I have:
HTMLVideoElement, WebM VP8 and Media source Extensions support, and
H.264, MSE & H.264 and MSE & WebM VP9 unsupported.
I have hardware acceleration enabled in firefox, and have the OpenH264 Video Codec (Cisco) plugin installed.
Some more info here: [URL] ....
I could switch back to using flash by using a user-agent switcher to fool youtube I have an older firefox, but that is a poor solution.
I am using chrome Version 50.0.2661.75 (64-bit) running on Debian (Gnome).
I am having the following problem, since yesterday every time I want to play a video (for ex [URL]watch?v=UF8uR6Z6KLc) The music, logo in the video and functions work but the video doesn't play. I reinstalled Chrome, clean all the data, disable all the plugins, I tried as incognito and several other options and it doesn't work, before yesterday it was working (yesterday I updated all Debians packages).
I have a MySQL database running on my local server, which I currently access via laptop, desktop using HTML/PHP.I want to re-write in HTML5, I have gone through a couple of HTML5 tutorials but cannot figure out the database interface. The best match I can find is Server-Sent Events, is this the best way forward? What about writing to the database? I have found several suggestions using Web SQL database but I don't think this is suitable as my database is also accessed from Python code on the server.

This doesn't happen if using Chrome.
FF v3.6.9
Seems like that shouldn't happen.
I noticed that Firefox won't play HTML5 videos, or better said, the sites always return a Flash video instead the HTML5 version. So either I install Flash or I can't play videos.
However, with Iceweasel I don't have this problem. The sites always load with a HTML5 video instead of the Flash version. So no need to install Flash.
I checked plugins, extensions and even the user-agent string to see if there is some indication Iceweasel is using and Firefox don't, but I don't see anything special, so... how is it possible that using Iceweasel the sites load HTML5 video, but using Firefox the sites tend to use Flash?
I know that in Debian there is no need of installing Firefox, but right now I'm trying other distros and that's where I noticed about this problem. Then switched to my Debian installation and installed Firefox, and checked the same happens in Debian. Just for the record, in Windows it doesn't need Flash either.
I'm on Fedora 13 and I have Chromium installed. How do I get more plugins like mplayer or vlc working?

I tried linking all of the plugins from the firefox directory to the chrome plugins directory but no luck.
