[Bug 998634] Re: chromium can't play youtube vids??

 

Possibly related to #1393076.
Could the package please be updated to 38.0.2125.122 to see if that helps.

Title:
  chromium can't play youtube vids??

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When i  go to youtube and play a video in chromium-browser, about half the time it says.."AW SNAP" and then apologizes for some error and then tells me if this happens a lot try all this stuff...which turns out to be total rubbish?? There is a bug that has something to do with...ubuntu 12.04 64 bit (maybe 32 bit too) ... chromium... and playing youtube vids (and maybe other vids). This is extremely annoying. To be sure i then played the exact same vids in firefox and they play no problem.
  RECAP :
  ubuntu 12.04 64 bit
  chromium-browser
  youtube vids 
  error message says "AW SNAP" and the vid does not play

  extremely annoying...
