Hi,

Since version 3.x kicked in (on Jolla 1) some videos are playing just audio in Sailfish Browser. Example:

Used to have no issue with codecs whatsoever on 2.x. Facebook embedded videos sometimes experience the same behaviour - player starts, audio plays but video is black screen.

Works fine for me in stock browser on JollaC, 3.0.1.11 (with lots of codecs from openrepos)

It would help if you could figure out which codec produces the black screen.

And how do I do this? Debug the browser?

I downloaded it and used mediainfo: https://pastebin.com/U2ZpRH3A

Maybe try some of these codecs (jollaphone specific ones) https://openrepos.net/user/7598/programs
