Description comet.friend 2013-05-01 09:36:28 UTC

On some pages Konqueror refuses to play videos (Flash, I think), regardless of the backend (Webkit, KHTML). But with KHTML backend, the page with the videos isn't rendered properly. E. g. on a page of Honda Germany there are two videos, that are playing neither with KHTML nor with Webkit. But only with KHTML there are, in addition, two big black boxes above and slightly overlapping the respective video pane.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Choose backend KHTML in Konqueror.
2. Open http://honda-civic.de/app/honda.php.
3. Click to start the video "Fahrbericht". This actually doesn't start a video, but just navigates you to a page with two embedded videos: http://honda-civic.de/gallery/index.php?lead=honda&autoplay=1#slide-1. With KHTML theres a big black box above each video preview pane, respectively, with Webkit all looks good up to here.
4. Click to start any of the videos.
Actual Results:
KHTML: Page not rendered properly, videos not playing.
Webkit: Page rendered almost properly, but videos also not playing.

No noticeable response to clicking on any of the two videos on http://honda-civic.de/gallery/index.php?lead=honda&autoplay=1#slide-1.

Expected Results:
Page is loaded and rendered properly. (This actually works with Webkit, but KHTML already fails, here.)
Videos are played when clicked. (Neither Webkit nor KHTML show noticeably response to clicking on the video panes).

As far as I can tell this is no duplicate of any other bug report, e. g. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=247181.

Sorry, cannot test it, as the web page the hyperlink is pointing to has been replaced by another page. The original web page seems no longer to be available.

Comment 5 Justin Zobel 2022-12-03 09:01:22 UTC
