Bug Description

Firefox could not play videos on Gaia.com. The error message blamed the browser. So I downloaded and installed the browser Opera, with the same results and message. Both browsers would play Youtube videos.

Please enable Gaia.com videos.

Thanks.

I downloaded the latest Ubuntu release today. 18.04...something

 Thanks for the response, Oliver.
Today, the results are different.  There is no error message, but the Gaia videos will not start.  That is, there is no response to a left click on the little GUI in the center of the video display image.
Also, I would like to comply with your request but have no clue where to start.
Anxiously, Bob James

 I just received this error message after clicking on a link in an email from Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard:
Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available.
Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video.
Copy/Paste produced the above solid black line instead of the three lines of text I had highlighted.

Hi Bob,

To attach additional information to the bug report, you will need to open a terminal window, either using the Ctrl+Alt+T keyboard shortcut, or searching for application "Terminal" in the Activities view.

When the terminal window appears, there should be a text prompt. Just type "apport-collect 1834375" (without the surrounding double quotes) and then Return.

This will collect relevant information about your version of firefox and system settings, and attach it to this bug.

 Oliver, I've reduced use of Firefox because I think it has been corrupted by Google.  I've been using mostly Opera.  And DuckDuckGo for searches.

 Hi Bob,

To attach additional information to the bug report, you will need to
open a terminal window, either using the Ctrl+Alt+T keyboard shortcut,
or searching for application "Terminal" in the Activities view.

When the terminal window appears, there should be a text prompt. Just
type "apport-collect 1834375" (without the surrounding double quotes)
and then Return.

This will collect relevant information about your version of firefox and
system settings, and attach it to this bug.

Thanks!

Title:
  Gaia.com videos unsupported

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Firefox could not play videos on Gaia.com.  The error message blamed

  videos.

  Please enable Gaia.com videos.

  Thanks.

 I did not understand how to comply with this request: " Also, please run the following command in a terminal to attachadditional information to the bug report:

    apport-collect 1834375"
Also, I have a Hantek PC-Oscilloscope which requires Window 7 or XP.  Any hope to use it on Ubuntu, ever?
Thanks,Bob James

 Just tested in an up-to-date 18.04 virtual machine, and I can play the
sample videos on gaia.com's home page.

What exactly is not working? Streaming videos maybe? Can you share the
exact error message that you get?

Also, please run the following command in a terminal to attach
additional information to the bug report:

    apport-collect 1834375

Thanks!
