Description Friedel Wolff 2013-10-01 08:17:30 CEST

Description of problem:

With an embedded video on a page, Firefox handles it as an embedded sound only. The right click menu only contains the audio controls (like mute, copy audio location), but not the video controls expected (show statistics, show video, copy video location).

When pressing the play button, the audio of the embedded video is played, but no video content is shown, only the initial picture shown before the play button was pressed.

Problem seen on this page:

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
firefox-17.0.9-1.mga3

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit URL
2. Press play on the video controls
3. See how no video is shown on screen


Reproducible:

Mageia 3 has reached its end of life a few months ago. Is this problem still present in Mageia 4 or Mageia 5 RC?

It seems to work now on Mageia 4 with Firefox 31, so I'm closing the bug.
