Xine codecs installed. no video on youtube or any other site.

Using suse linux 13.1. Installed xine codecs. Firefox is aware of this according to the "tools -> manage content plugins" list, and "edit -> preferences -> applications" list. I am at a complete loss as what to do. I really need to get this sorted otherwise I am going to have return to windows which is not something that I want.

Flash Player is usually required to play videos on most sites, including YouTube. It looks like you already have the latest version installed (it's listed as "Shockwave Flash" in the Add-ons Manager, Plugins category). What happens exactly? Do you get an error message?
* [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems]]
Alternatively, if you have the right packages installed, you should be able to play videos in HTML5 format. According to bug 972638,
The backend right now depends on the following gstreamer modules: gstreamer, gst-plugins-base, gst-plugins-good, gst-plugins-bad and either gst-libav or some 3rd party h264 decoder (I believe Fluendo has one, but there are also others).
If you meet the requirements, then to play videos on YouTube in HTML5 format, you can
# Disable the Flash Player plug-in by setting Shockwave Flash to "Never Activate".
# Install the following add-on.
#* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/youtube-all-html5/
# Some insist that [https://www.youtube.com/html5 joining the HTML5 trial] also works, but it's never worked for me and others.
To play videos on other sites in HTML5 format, you can
# Install Greasemonkey.
#* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/
# Install the ViewTube user script.
#* http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/87011
Note that not all sites have videos in HTML5 format, and those that do tend to serve only Flash videos to desktop browsers (which is why the above user script is necessary).

  • Firefox will not allow me to play any videos on youtube or any other websites. If I go on Google Chrome I can watch videos.

    It's not just youtube but any sites where I want to watch tv shows or movies also.

  • When ever i go to watch videos on youtube or any other apps, the screen goes black. you can hear the video but you cant see anything. how do i fix this?

    i have an ipod tough 3g and its like about 4 to 5 years old it works perfectly fine except the home button is abit messed up and the ipod sometimes crashes. but other than that everything is fine. so i was watching something on an app and then al of a sudden i dont see the video i can just hear it. i then think its just the app but when i go on youtube the same exact thing happens. you click to watch a video and you can hear it perfectly but you cant see anything. the screen is just black when u ONLY watch a video. this happened last night so yea.i really hope somebody can help me figure out how to fix this and whats wrongwith it:)
                                                                                                                         thanks for your time and help!
                                                                                                                                                       Noor .T.

    When it goes black do a very short press of the button on the right upper side of the phone and the screen will reappear.  Make it a very short quick press.
    OTOH, if you are using the speaker so you can watch the screen as you are talking when it goes dim touch the screen anywhere that it is blank and it will again go bright.  On long calls you have to repeat this.
    Many folks have had the same problem you described and what I have told you is the best and ONLY way around the screen going blank during a call.

  • I recently started to have this problem, I can view videos on youtube without any problems, but if I put a link lets say on FB, I cant view the video

    I recently started to have this problem, I can view videos on youtube without any problems, but if I put a link lets say on FB, I cant view the video I can only hear the sound, its like, there even the buttons, only invisible, yet still clickable, so if I manage to find and click the full-screen button the video switch to full-screen and I can view it. this is really annoying as I cant see flash animations and some videos at all.

    You need to find out what type of video it is.  What your describing is what you get when a Video codec (software that allows you to "see" the video) is missing, damaged, or too old for the movie.
    Once you identify what kind of movie it is, then you can update the codec.

  • TS3274 Videos won't play.  Not YouTube or any other videos.  I also have no sound.  Are these common failures for a three year old gen 2  iPad?

    Videos won't play.  Not YouTube or any other videos (just started today).  I also have no sound, keypad clicks, shutoff click, etc.  Are these common failures for a three year old Gen 2 iPad?

    For the issue with the videos that will no longer work, try closing all apps and then reboot the iPad.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    For the issue with sounds, you have system sounds muted.
    Check the side switch above the volume rocker on the side of the iPad. Flip it the other way and see if you get sound from the apps, keyboard clicks, etc.
    If not, double tap the home button to bring up the task bar at the bottom. In the task bar swipe all the way to the right. Look on the far left side and see if there is a speaker icon. If there is, tap it and see if the sounds on apps come back. Then tap the home button.
    You can change how the side switch works to either lock screen rotation or to mute system sounds. You can go to Settings>General>Set Side switch to Lock Rotation or mute. If you choose mute, the switch will turn off apps sounds. Otherwise you use the task bar as described above to mute those sounds.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • Every time I watch a video on youtube (on any browser) my macbook pro starts freezing

    Hello everyone,
    Every time I watch a video on youtube (on any browser) my macbook pro starts freezing half a minute, works fine for 10 seconds, then freezes again... This started a couple days ago. The only solution is to restart and not watch video's... Anyone know how to solve this?
    I have a pretty old macbook pro, from around 2006. I've never had this problem...
    Thanks,
    Tommy
    P.S. My family is currently deleting some items and it seems to be working, I'll update you if the problem is fixed.

    Reinstall Flash Player?  YouTube is Flash based.

  • No sound on youtube or any other webpage

    When I go to a website such as youtube.com or any other site that plays sound, it only plays through the speakers on my monitor. The speakers in my monitor do not work very well, so i bought a Edifier Surround Sound System. The surround sound works with
    my Windows Media Player but not with webpages that play music or videos. I've already went through my Internet Options and the multimedia settings are checked, nothing is muted. Im so frustrated! Help!

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting in Microsoft TechNet forums.
    Did it work before? When did this issue begin to occur? If it works before, system restore can be under consideration.
    Please go into Internet Options>Advanced tab scroll down to Multimedia and make sure that "Play sounds in web pages" is check, click Apply/OK.
    If it is already checked, uncheck it, click Apply/OK then go back and recheck it, click Apply/OK.
    Meanwhile, does the sound work in the following website?
    http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/windows-7/videos-tours.aspx
    Meanwhile, it seems you have two output devices, please go to control panel-> sound->under playback tab, set the other device as default to test
    the issue.
    Best Regards
    Magon Liu

  • Youtube, Netflix, and other sites continue playing audio after the tab is closed

    If you are watching a video on Youtube, Netflix, or another site and you close the tab, the audio continues to play in the background. Restarting the browser resolves the issue.

    I was directed here from my question: "[http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/928868 Flash video stops and starts but audio continues]"
    Flash videos freeze momentarily then fast forward/catch up while the audio continues to play without a problem. Interestingly, I noticed on one video it freezes at the same spot (about 27-28 seconds in) each time I try it. Audio does continue for a split second after I close a tab (that's normal) but it ''does not'' keep going and I don't have to restart FF to stop the audio. Also, I am already using FF13 and it didn't resolved my issue.
    I'm using Win XP with FF 13 but the problem has been going on for about a month (ie under FF12 as well). The problem also occurs under IE which makes me believe that Adobe Flash is the culprit (I also tested Quicktime videos and they worked fine). Flash video seems to work fine under Win7 (rarely freezes) and Ubuntu.
    I looked through similar questions (see above link) and did find one thing that works but it is only a temporary fix for me. One person had HTML5 problems and had to opt out on Youtube. I did the opposite - I opted in and the videos worked fine. However, I like to stick on private browsing which would require me to 'opt in' each time I go to Youtube. Additionally, I encounter the same problem on other sites with flash video and they don't have an HTML5 option.
    I also noticed that I do not have the problem at work on an XP machine with same addons in FF. Flash is v11,1,102,62 (at home I think I have the most updated: 11.2.202.235). I updated the XP machine at work to the latest flash and it still seems to work fine.
    I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling flash, starting FF in safe mode, turning off my firewall and I my internet speed is fine (15Mbps down). I thought it could be my video card but videos on my computer play fine as did the quicktime video. I'm at a loss.

  • I can't search any videos on YouTube/Download any app from the App Store

    Hi,
    I am using movistar 3G network (Spain), full signal. Everything works fine, Stock app, Weather app, Mail, Safari... but I can't search for any videos on YouTube and can't download any app from the App Store.
    I can see videos on YouTube app but only the featured videos, when I try to search the ones I want to see I get an error message "Cannot connect to YouTube".
    The only problem is when searching videos on YouTube app.
    When I try to download an app from the App Store I get a similar error message, "The download can´t be done, connect to iTunes" more or less, that's the sense of the message.
    I can connect to the AppStore, surf it but when I press Install... I get the error message.
    I know that my carrier, movistar (Spain) has an issue with secure webs (https), it's impossible to surf any secure web by now but I don´t know if this is related with my problems.
    This happens with 2.1 and 2.2 firmware version.
    I have the iPhone set in spanish from Spain and the time is right. By the way, using WiFi everything works fine, everything, I can search for videos on YouTube app and download apps from the AppStore.
    I don´t know what more can I do, can someone help me? please. = (
    Thanks in advance.
