First of all, that's not a bug. You gonna need the "Proprietary codecs" support in order to watch live streams. So even if you open 200 instances of this issue, the solution still be the only one - you shall compile QtWebEngine with  "Proprietary codecs" yourself!
Everything works if the codecs are enabled, see attchment!

In other words, this is a configuration, distro, or vendor issue, not a problem with Falkon itself.
