<![CDATA[Video not supported?]]>I've come across a problem here with the embedded video.
In Opera 36 it just puts up a message saying "This browser does not support video playback".
It works fine in Google Chrome.
It's not the same problem as some are having with Facebook videos, as they work fine for me.
Anyone any idea why this particular video won't play?
🙂

Not a big deal, if I run across another video that won't play in Opera, I'll just use Chrome to watch it!
Thanks everyone for your help.

try installing a minimal set of Klite codec pack and try playing it again

It wouldn't help as the support should be native.

It's rather an old version now though (8.2.0) as I haven't updated it for ages, so I may try a newer version to see if that makes any difference.
Thanks for the pointer.

If Google Chrome works OK with it, I'm just surprised that Opera doesn't.

Chrome has its own (media) decoder. For some reasons - mainly legal AFAIK - Opera can't have its own decoder so it relies on the OS to play some codecs, like H264.

Thanks.

it says Opera 36 supports everything except "H.264" and "MSE & H.264".

That video most probably uses H264, what can't be played in Opera on XP because XP doesn't natively supports H264.

YouTube works fine using HTML5.

I just tried it again, and the video appears to load OK, and the player controls appear, but then the "This browser does not support video playback" message comes up in the video window.
Does anyone have a link to another video of the same type I could try without being a Twitter member?
