      @jeonghan Try uninstalling and reinstalling it to see if there is any difference.

        @leocg None, unfortunately. Went to html5test though and saw that H.264 support was missing exclusively to GX, so I just went on to download the codec by itself. Thank you so much for assisting both here and in the server!

            @fanfanelli Hi! You should go to this website and check if some codecs are unsupported. On my end, H.264 was gone after I reinstalled GX (but not on other browsers though for some reason), so I just went ahead and reinstalled it from here (I'm on Windows)!

                oh no, it worked for a moment but now it isn't working again.
                I've checked the website and I think I have everything in place. Tell me if I'm wrong. I'm on windows 11 I don't know if it makes any difference.

                  @fanfanelli It definitely matters! You can check codecs for your specific OS here. 🙂

                    @jeonghan I've read the website you sent me but I can't find what it says on my PC. Is windows N the same as Windows Home? I have windows home. I've also installed the Media Feature pack for Windows.

                      @fanfanelli You can press the Windows Button, type "About your PC", and it will show you your Windows specifications. 🙂 Here's an example of what mine looks like.

                      Aside from the Media Pack itself, you also have to download the additional codecs listed in the website I sent you beforehand.

                        @jeonghan hi, thanks for all your effort. I have done everything you told me. I have windows media pack installed, the codecs listed, checked HTML 5 test. But it still doesn't work. I have checked what you told me about my windows. This is what I found: d6653f78-1c73-4328-b468-2bbbb750921d-image.png

                          @fanfanelli Have you tried these (1, 2) fixes? 🙂
