problems opening m3u-files

logg.sar

but only HD-Streams.

I'm using my second screen for watching tv via my dreambox.
Therefore I download an m3u-file and open it.

In Vivaldi, and only in Vivaldi, I get this error message:

[000056492d823410] netsync interface error: master address not specified
[000056492d823410] main interface error: no suitable interface module
[000056492d745570] main libvlc error: interface "netsync,none" initialization failed

Opening the file via Filemanager its ok, and every other installed browser is working - so this is no vlc, os or browser related problem.

Annoying, really anoying.

Oh, i'm using 1.15.1137.3 (Official Build) snapshot (64-bit) on debian 9

Hi gwen

this pushed me into the right direction.

I looked for libffmpeg.so and found 2.
One in /opt/vivaldi-snapshot/lib and one in /opt/vivaldi-snapshot/lib
The second is never and I can remeber I copied this file according to https://vivaldi.com/blog/snapshots/understanding-linux-video-issues/

To make a long story short - while the libffmpeg.so is located in /opt/vivaldi-snapshot the error occures. After moving to /opt/vivaldi-snapshot/lib everything is ok.

Seems that the advice on this site is not perfectly correct....

Danke Gwen

Hallo Gwen

The chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra_65.0.3325.181-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb helped
I renamed /opt/vivaldi-snapshot/lib/libffmpg.so.bak back and installed the package.

Problem persists.
