Ok, I have the same problem with the most important video website in France : www.dailymotion.com/fr
I have tested it with this link http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xgxaa8_vangelis-chariots-of-fire_music
and the video doesn't start.

What is the link that you use to test video on Youtube ?

I have tested lightspark-0.4.6.1 with Firefox 4.0 and the first video URL that the lightspark's developer use and that doesn't work at the end of this file :
https://github.com/lightspark/lightspark/blob/master/README

I will try to contact the developer Alessandro Pignotti (https://launchpad.net/~a-pignotti) to fix this problem with Youtube and Dailymotion.
Comment 7 Y.LE_NY 2011-04-09 21:44:14 CEST
Mail sent to the developer for the playing video problem.
Comment 8 Ahmad Samir 2011-04-09 21:47:43 CEST
Great, thanks :)

Alessandro thinks that it is maybe a Mesa bug.
I sent him all the information needed to find the bug.

Hello Samir,

The LightSpark developper said :
>I suspect the package is being
> built without ffmpeg support.

Can you check this feature in build log for lightspark-mozilla-plugin ?

spec file at
http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/lightspark/current/SPECS/lightspark.spec?view=log

Best regards.
Comment 11 Ahmad Samir 2011-04-12 21:17:54 CEST
ffmepg-devel is in the BuildRequires, and from the build log:
[....]
-- checking for modules 'libavcodec;libavutil'
--   found libavcodec, version 52.72.2
--   found libavutil, version 50.15.1
-- Looking for avcodec_decode_video2
-- Looking for avcodec_decode_video2 - found
-- Looking for avcodec_decode_audio3
-- Looking for avcodec_decode_audio3 - found
-- checking for module 'gtk+-2.0'
-- checking for modules 'nspr;mozilla-plugin;x11'
[....]

And /usr/bin/lightspark links against libavcodec.so.52 and libavutil.so.52:
$ ldd /usr/bin/lightspark | grep av
        libavcodec.so.52 => /usr/lib64/libavcodec.so.52 (0x00007fcc92df2000)
        libavutil.so.50 => /usr/lib64/libavutil.so.50 (0x00007fcc92be0000)

Hello samir,

16 April 2011, the lightspark's developper said :
"currently (since yesterday) YouTube support is broken as they've updated
the player application. We're working to fix that with the next point
release. When this is fixed please post the terminal log that is
generated when the browser. I think that the most probably issues are:
-) poor support in Mesa for PBOs
-) FFMpeg built without h264 support."

For testing, we need :
* FFMpeg built without h264 support --> but X264 libs are not in SVN (package request here : https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749)
* a video driver with 3D support and OpenGL 2.0 support
* a Mesa > 7.10 
* the latest lightspark : 0.4.7 (25/04/2011)
https://github.com/lightspark/lightspark/blob/master/ChangeLog 
   Version 0.4.7 changes.
   * Fix YouTube breakage
   * More robustness against deadlocks
   * Implement flash.net.URLVariables
   * XML fixes
   * Browser plugin is now built by default

Samir, can you ? :
* import x264 package in tainted repo -> all info needed here : https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749
* compile ffmeg with x264 support and faad2 (AAC audio codec support) (see PLF tag in spec file for ffmeg -> http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/ffmpeg/current/SPECS/ffmpeg.spec?view=markup or http://svn.mandriva.com/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/packages/cooker/ffmpeg/current/SPECS/ffmpeg.spec?view=markup)and store this ffmeg binaries in tainted repo.
* update lightspark to the latest release to Fix YouTube breakage with new fmeg binaries

then I will test the new lightspark plugin.

ffmpegc can't be compiled with AAC or h264 support in the core repo (patent issues), but will be done in the tainted repo, which means it'll have to wait until bug 338 is fixed.

I know the patent problem.

OK, no problems.

Summary: lightspark-mozilla-plugin-0.4.5.3 rpm is missing in DVD Mageia1 Alpha 2 (32 bits) => lightspark-mozilla-plugin rpm is missing in DVD Mageia1

Comment 16 Marja Van Waes 2011-11-24 06:53:17 CET
In bug 449, comment 7, I read:

If lightspark must "require" an ffmpeg built with h264 and AAC support then it
definitely won't be on the DVD, which only contains free open source software.
c.f. bug 447.



yleny, it seems useless to leave this request open even when changing Mageia 1 in the summary to Mageia 2, therefore closing it. 

BTW, I just read here http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/updates/1/ffmpeg/current/SPECS/ffmpeg.spec?view=markup&pathrev=171564

"disable x264 support as x264 is too old in mageia 1"

If x264 is too old for Mga 1, I doubt it won't be too old for Mga 2
