Description Bill Nottingham 2008-04-09 02:24:33 UTC

Description of problem:

For example, bothe scoreboard and the linked gamecast at
mlb.com don't work correctly.

None of the flash entries on the front page of uefa.com work.

youtube does not work (movies are just a black screen, no sound,
even with the proper plugins.)

I'm hard-pressed to find a site where it works at all.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

swfdec-mozilla-0.6.0-1.fc9
How reproducible:

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2008-04-09 02:36:42 UTC

After some work, video can be made to work in youtube, but audio is still broken.

Comment 3 Bill Nottingham 2008-04-09 03:00:54 UTC

swfdec was using a bad gst plugin for audio. Offending plugin remove, and it
sort of works. However, the volume slider in youtube and similar places has no
effect.

Comment 4 Bill Nottingham 2008-04-09 03:02:24 UTC

... that also fixes the tennis game abort. So, we're up to two!

Comment 5 Bill Nottingham 2008-04-09 03:02:54 UTC

Whoops, spoke too soon. Still aborts occasionally on that site.

Comment 7 Benjamin Otte 2008-04-10 20:50:16 UTC

This bug has been a communication problem. The PA backend is still considered
experimental, but was enabled because the ALSA backend did not work with Pulseaudio.

A fix for the ALSA backend is in upstream git.

Comment 8 Brian Pepple 2008-04-10 23:10:20 UTC

Pulled Benjamin's patch from git.
