Title:
Firefox not playing YouTube videos in Virtualbox on Xubuntu
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
In Xubuntu Firefox does not play videos of e.g. YouTube or the Dutch
TV Viewer. It works in all other Virtualbox VMs with e.g. Ubuntu
20.04, Ubuntu 16.04 or Windows 10 Pro. The problem is related to the
buffering (stats for nerds). It build up the buffer and when the
buffer reaches its value, it plays the content of the buffer in a few
milli seconds. Afterwards it starts again with the same process.
I have reinstalled firefox, but the problems remains (apt --reinstall
install firefox)
The problem is independent on the selection of the hw acceleration in
the firefox preferences.
