[Bug 1305317] Re: Youtube webapp reads fewer videos with the new oxideqt-codecs package

 

Per Chris, oxide is stating that it is using all the codecs when using
the oxideqt-codecs package rather than just the subset. Chromium is
written in a matter that hardcodes this list such that all of oxide
needs to be built twice rather than just ffmpeg. This can be solved in
packaging.

The webapps team said this need to be fixed before 14.04 release.

Title:
  Youtube webapp reads fewer videos with the new oxideqt-codecs package

Status in Oxide Webview:
  New
Status in “oxide-qt” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The new build which enables oxideqt-codecs and oxideqt-codecs-extra
  has an impact on the youtube dekstop webapp to play certain videos.

  Previously, ie without any of the codec packages, youtube was able to
  play certain videos. Now instead we receive an 'undefined' message
  from youtube.

  If installing the oxideqt-codecs-extra package, the video plays again.
