<div><font face="Arial" size="2"> Hello to all Nightly Testers
(and hopefully Mozilla devs) reading this!<br>
<br>
OS Specifics: <br>
<br>
Windows_NT 6.0, i.e.<br>
Windows Vista SP2 32bit, en-US localization.<br>
All Microsoft Updates (up to July 2016) applied <br>
(contrary to popular belief, Vista is still under <br>
extended Microsoft support and will continue <br>
to be so until April 2017!).<br>
<br>
Nightly specifics:<br>
<br>
Version: 51.0a1 (x86)<br>
BuildID: 20160901030202<br>
Built from <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/b7f7ae1">https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/b7f7ae1</a><br>
<br>
BBC iPlayer Requirements<br>
<br>
1. You must have a valid UK IP address <br>
(or "acquire" one that has not been <br>
blacklisted by BBC's geo-location filter ;-) ).<br>
2. As of today, to access video-on-demand, <br>
you have to be covered by a valid UK TV <br>
licence; for testing purposes in the context <br>
of this report, click the <br>
"I have a TV Licence." phrase in the pop-up... <br>
<br>
iPlayer HTML5 Requirements<br>
<br>
1. If you do not have the Flash NPAPI plugin <br>
installed, then iPlayer will default to HTML5 <br>
in Nightly 51.0a1<br>
2. If you do have the Flash NPAPI plugin installed, <br>
then do one of two things: <br>
<br>
a: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="about:addons">about:addons</a> => Plugins => <br>
Shockwave Flash => Never Activate <br>
and restart Nightly<br>
<br>
b. Visit: <br>
</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/html5">http://www.bbc.co.uk/html5</a><br>
</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">and on the top right click the <br>
"Opt in to the HTML5 Player" <br>
blue ribbon - a cookie is set and <br>
the wording changes to <br>
"Opt out of the HTML5 Player" <br>
Take care NOT to delete that <br>
cookie during your test.<br>
<br>
Visit a VOD iPlayer page, e.g. <br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b07pqw06/reading-and-leeds-festival-2016-foals">http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b07pqw06/reading-and-leeds-festival-2016-foals</a><br>
<br>
Click the "Play" icon on the player; <br>
agree to the age check and not set <br>
Parental Guidance Lock by clicking Play: <br>
<br>
Expected results: <br>
<br>
The video should start playing...<br>
<br>
Actual results: <br>
<br>
1. If NPAPI Flash is not installed or it's disabled, <br>
then you get a <br>
<br>
"This content cannot be played in <br>
our HTML5 Player<br>
Download Flash Player now"<br>
<br>
screen message. <br>
<br>
2. If NPAPI Flash is installed and enabled <br>
but you have opted in to HTML5 via a set cookie, <br>
you get another failure message with different wording: <br>
<br>
"This content doesn't seem to <br>
be working. <br>
Please try again later."<br>
<br>
In both cases 1 & 2, web console reports: <br>
<br>
"Media resource
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="blob:http://emp.bbc.co.uk/b00a382c-9759-4a66-913e-cec8c46e6360">blob:http://emp.bbc.co.uk/b00a382c-9759-4a66-913e-cec8c46e6360</a>
could not be decoded." <br>
<br>
I consider this to be an important bug, <br>
because BBC will eventually switch to their <br>
HTML5 player exclusively, so expect all UK <br>
users to be really upset... <br>
<br>
I got access to sister's Windows 7 SP1 64bit <br>
laptop and the bug is reproducible there, too! <br>
Starting a new clean profile in latest Nightly 51.0a1 <br>
makes no difference; the same goes for enabling/<br>
disabling e10s...<br>
<br>
As of now, DeveloperEdition 50.0a2, Beta 49.0b8 <br>
and Release 48.0.2 remain unaffected.<br>
<br>
To aid the devs, I spent this afternoon (in my timezone) <br>
to do a dissection and found out that: <br>
<br>
Last good build: Nightly-51.0a1.en-US.win32[20160823030224]<br>
cset=24763f5<br>
First bad build: Nightly-51.0a1.en-US.win32[20160823072522]<br>
cset=052656f<br>
<br>
Regression range: <br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?fromchange=24763f5&tochange=052656f">https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?fromchange=24763f5&tochange=052656f</a><br>
<br>
So it was the re-spin on Aug 23rd that broke things! <br>
There are exactly 190 csets in that range, I'll leave it to <br>
the experts to pinpoint probable culprits...<br>
<br>
I lack adequate Bugzilla skills/account, so I kindly ask <br>
one of my readers to file an appropriate bug... :-)<br>
<br>
Kind regards</font></div>
