Vivaldi & H.264/MP4 (MP3 too I think) & libffmpeg.so
Re: Vivaldi & H.264/MP4 (MP3 too I think) & libffmpeg.so
Glad to hear it! I love Vivaldi.
Re: Vivaldi & H.264/MP4 (MP3 too I think) & libffmpeg.so
Curiously that works but also allowed me to watch a video on sbs.com.au without logging in, something I've always had to do in Firefox.
Re: Vivaldi & H.264/MP4 (MP3 too I think) & libffmpeg.so
Cool. That command you used from the vivaldi site, copied an even larger (later version I suppose) libffmpeg.so file onto my system than the one that PIA-VPN was using (& I've been using in the /opt/vivaldi/lib directory) into my ~/.local/vivaldi/lib directory.WaltH wrote: ↑Fri Oct 05, 2018 11:49 am For what it's worth, going to this Vivaldi help page https://help.vivaldi.com/article/html5- ... -on-linux/ and copying and running the 64-bit command in the Other Linux section seems to have solved my problem in this area. BBC News and YouTube videos now work for me in Vivaldi.
This has to be THE solution, until vivaldi gets around to automating this & including it in the install process.
Well done!

Re: Vivaldi & H.264/MP4 (MP3 too I think) & libffmpeg.so
I am curious as to whether this code could be modified to install libffmpeg.so into other Chromium based browsers.
If it could it would save a lot of headaches.

Since I've got Opera installed with non-functioning h.264 I gave it a try. I found a previous post which indicated where to put the file viewtopic.php?f=104&t=46040&hilit=libffmpeg.so#p458472, and replaced the Vivaldi location with the one for Opera.
The file downloaded but Opera still doesn't play h.264, so I'm assuming this location is incorrect.
Edit: This is the code I entered into the terminal:
Code: Select all
curl -Lr1078- vvld.in/lm64 | tar xJ -C ~ --wildcards \*libffmpeg\.so --xform 's,.*/,.usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/,'

You could try putting it in ~/.local/lib/opera/colin_b wrote: ↑Fri Oct 05, 2018 10:04 pmSince I've got Opera installed with non-functioning h.264 I gave it a try.

Does opera store itself in /opt if so you could also try putting the file in there (if the $HOME/.local/... location doesn't work).
Vivaldi uses /opt/vivaldi/lib/libffmpeg.so as the default path/location for the file. But obviously, for Vivaldi (& for other applications also, settings in the $HOME/ directory take priority over any other.
