Youtube on Vivaldi 1.2 not working
-
Running 1.2.490.39 (64-bit), and getting an Error message when I try to watch a youtube video (only youtube, not video from other sites). Works when I disable HTML5, but I'd rather fix it that turn it off. Attached the error code below.

I'm having the same issue, in fact, for me, no youtube videos play. I can play them in firefox but not vivaldi. Below is the about from my vivaldi, and I'm running Windows 7 SP1 64bit version. Please let me know what other information I can give to be more helpful.

Vivaldi 1.2.490.39 () (32-bit)
–ppapi-flash-path="C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\50.0.2661.102\PepperFlash\pepflashplayer.dll"You are using Vivaldi 32bit
I also notice the flashplayer is from Chrome - could that be a 64bit version?
No idea if it would make a difference if you tried the player direct from Adobe downloaded using Vivaldi?
On my system the player path is:
ppapi-flash-path="C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\pepflashplayer32_21_0_0_242.dll" -
@TbGbe how would I go about changing that? I definitely have adobe flash installed on my machine.
-
Just to test, you could add the " –ppapi-flash-path=[folder/dll] " string to the Target field of your Vivaldi desktop icon.
Note: there are 2 dashes - -As I said, this is just a wild guess, no idea if will change anything. But you can always just delete the path afterwards.
-
Hmm I just tried that and it just ended up showing both paths so I removed it. It didn't do anything to the flash video to allow it to play either. I think this started to be an issue after a recent update. Hmm this issue is also happening with my chrome browser…but firefox will play it correctly. I'll see if I can find a fix for chrome first and see if that may carry over to vivaldi.
-
So just a bit more information, it's not a flash issue as flash loads on other websites, I can watch Vimeo videos, I can stream music via pandora, it looks to be a pure issue with youtube.

@Gwen-Dragon:
But, stop…
Please,Flash is not needed anymore for Youtube.
Youtube plays fine as HTML5 video player since years.You're right
I had forgotten it no longer required a preference setting

What doyou see here - https://www.youtube.com/html5 -
I went to the link and saw that my browser does indeed support html5 and webm video. Funny enough, youtube videos are now working again. I did have to reboot the computer a few times but whatever it was…it's now working. The only two changes I believe is that I'm now using a 32-bit version of vivaldi as opposed to the 64-bit version and I had to reboot a few times.
-
Okay, it's kind of weird actually. If I leave the youtube.com/html5 page open videos load fine, but if I close the page, youtube goes back to spinning loading circle and then eventually tells me there's a playback error.
