Description Ben L. 2010-04-25 18:00:05 UTC

To play html5 video/audio for me not just "mp3 threads x264" on ffmpeg is needed, "theora" is too.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge ffmpeg with USE "-theora mp3 threads x264"
2. emerge chromium
3. try to play html5 video

Actual Results:  
video wont play

Expected Results:  
video plays

possible solution should be:

Ben, could you give an example of vide that doesn't play with USE="-theora" as a test case?

Comment 3 Ben L. 2010-04-26 14:26:11 UTC

Every youtube.com video...


html5test.com tells me i have no video codec too (x264 -> "no")

Could you find some other example? Debugging HTML5 video on youtube is particularly problematic.

> html5test.com tells me i have no video codec too (x264 -> "no")

Oh that's weird. Could you post all of your ffmpeg flags? Also, does x264 switch to "yes" on html5test.com when you build with USE="theora"?
