Some mp4 videos don't load at livestreamfails site

Rickson

Hi!
I'm having a problem for some time now, that few mp4 videos just don't work. They appear normal, but when I click the play button, it just loads for a quick second and comes back as if I never clicked on it. What's weird is that from the same website some videos will play but others won't. Sometimes even it will show as loading and buffers all the way but won't play, though after refreshing the page it plays...

Video that does play, after refresh:

Vivaldi: 3.6.2165.40 (Stable channel) (64-bit)
Windows: 10 build 19042.867

@Rickson The first step should be to update your Vivaldi !

Both videos play for me using 3.7.2218.45 (Stable channel) (64-bit) - on Linux, though.

If you still have problem(s) check the troubleshooting steps

I updated the browser to 3.7.2218.45 (Stable channel) (64-bit), still not working, tried everything on the troubleshooting guide, the only thing that worked is to use another browser. On chrome the not playing video is working no problem.

Hi, I can verify on latest stable, it does not work on Windows, some videos play some not.
On Linux all play, I guess it is a codec problem. Chrome is shipped with own codecs, Vivaldi not. I would report it as bug:

For information on how to report a bug, see this URL: https://vvld.in/how-to-report-bugs

Once that is done, please share the bug number (beginning with VB-). Thanks.

Cheers, mib

I reported the bug and it was given VB-78137.

Thanks for all the help.

@Gwen-Dragon said in Some mp4 videos don't load, even from the same website.:

@Rickson

Some mp4 videos don't load

And on which other domain URLs do videos fail?

I can't really think of any. Never really had any of those problems.

Rickson

@Gwen-Dragon Yeah, when I was looking through forum, all the link that were checking codecs and were sending mp4 videos to check were working, that's why I tried doing my own thread.
