[VB-21185] Html5 Videos won't play
-
Most Youtube videos are not DRM protected, but I can't say that all are not. As long as you gave a few examples, the devs can check them.
-
What's your system? They all play perfectly here on Win 10, Viv32, AMD A10 8750 processor, AMD Radeon R7 graphics
-
Hmm. Should play fine. Do you use any extensions? Have you ever made any changes to chrome://settings/content? Ever made any per-site changes using the site info link at the far left of the address bar?
I do nothing special here. Just install Vivaldi and run it.
-
You have a lot of factors to test there.
First, turn off adguard and malwarebytes and try. If no joy, then with Vivaldi closed rename the Default folder (path found at menu/help/about/profile path) and try again. If THAT fixes it, read how to refresh your profile. You will have already done the first part of it.
-
1.4 final MIGHT not help. Adguard and Malwarebytes may see Chromium 53 as a totally different animal from Chromium 52, the foundation for 1.3. It will be interesting to see your results.
-
First one doesn't play here, rest does (gtx 970, win10 anniv)
-
maybe you should go into vivaldi:flags and disable hardware-accelerated decode, and see what that does.
-
I have no problem with any of the supposedly problematic links shared here.
Can you try to install the Metro DVD player, not because its features (it's just an useless metro app) but because it unlocks some parts of the MS stock codecs.
I have it installed on all my machines because the WMC installer, so could be something that matters.
-
Just tried the No Man's Sky video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXwnytHKU_g
Plays fine for me in Vivaldi 1.4RC2.
I notice Vivaldi 1.4 Stable is now available - but don't expect this to be different to 1.4RC2 for your problem. -

Could you please provide a link? I'm not seeing a 'Metro DVD Player' app in the Store.
It's not in the store for people not coming from a WMC enabled Windows.
Probably the faster way to install it is using my WMC installer. If you don't need/like WMC just install and uninstall it with the provided scripts.
The WMC will be completely removed but the DVDplayer will stay

P.S. Please pay attention to the download options or you will get some crapware instead of the intended file

Same problem here.
Had snapshot, uninstalled it and installed stable 1.3.
Everything worked until I updated it to 1.4 this morning.
Tried with different "Default" folder - didn't help. -
@purgatori:
Malwarebytes really did not like that site.
Yes. It's because distracted users are used to click w/o thinking, if you you know how it works (and you are, I have purposely explained it) you have just to disable temporarily the protection, download the file, and re-enable it.
Don't let the automated things override a bit of thinking/reading/learning.
-
I had the same issue as purgatori but i seem to have fixed it by enabling "Override software rendering list" in vivaldi://flags/
-
Glory hallelujah.
-
@TheAkashicTraveller:
I also had this problem. Had re-enable hardware acceleration here vivaldi://settings/search#hardware and set the Override software rendering list flag. It looks to me like they broke software rendering
Vivaldi did not make changes to software rendering. Looks like Chromium did.
-
Incredibly now with 1.4 with both hw rendering enabled OR disabled, youtube videos @60fps work perfectly without frame drops.
and http://demo.castlabs.com/ now works because WidevineCDM is correctly linked and used.
All good for me -

Please read the suggested fixes above, and try them. So far, every original poster on this thread got a fix using one of them or another. Since Vivaldi users as a whole do not have a problem at this time, individual users will have to try and see which fix addresses their platform and their use case. Vivaldi cannot yet build a fix for every single use case.

With earlier versions of Vivaldi me all mejor.Ahora funionaba fail me all videos.Desde version 1.4 I do not see videos.
Before HTML5 stop seeing the videos on the network vk.Con other browsers (Chrome, Edge, Maxthon, Firefox) works well. With Opera I fail videos vk network. I test everything poneis forum, it does not work. I have Windows 10. -
I just downgraded to the previous version and everything works fine now, I'll wait to upgrade until the Vivaldi people fix this problem
:whistle:
