[Bug 998569] Re: Embedded MP4 only plays audio in browser window

 

Only works when I disable FlashBlock.  That seems very *wrong*, since
it's a "plain" mp4 file.  (Or at least it appears to be.)

Title:
  Embedded MP4 only plays audio in browser window

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  On this page:
  http://blogs.msdn.com/b/b8/archive/2012/05/09/redesigning-chkdsk-and-the-new-ntfs-health-model.aspx

  is this link:

  Clicking on it blanks the window except for the normal set of media
  controls except that they are *at the top* of the window except at the
  bottom as usual.

  Clicking on the Caret in the upper right of the screen and selecting
  Full Screen shows the video and the audio properly.  In Full Screen
  mode, of course...

  On my wife's Maverick computer with FF 11, the video plays but not the
  audio.
