Bug Description:
I’ve noticed that certain Polish-language streaming platforms are not
functioning correctly on Ubuntu-based browsers (specifically Firefox and
Chromium). A good example is <a href="https://strumyktv.watch/">Strumyk TV</a>,
which offers Christian and family-oriented programming. When attempting to play
live streams or on-demand content, the video window either remains black or
displays a “media not supported” error.
Steps to reproduce:
Open Firefox or Chromium on Ubuntu 22.04 or 24.04.
Visit Strumyk TV.
Click on any live stream or video-on-demand content.
Expected result:
The video should load and play smoothly without errors.
Actual result:
In some cases, the video does not play at all.
In others, there’s a codec error or missing plugin warning.
No such issues occur when accessing the site via Windows or Android.
Additional information:
I’ve tested this on fresh Ubuntu installations.
Browser extensions were disabled.
The issue may relate to missing media codecs or DRM handling.
This affects usability for Polish-speaking Ubuntu users who rely on
platforms like Strumyk TV for family-safe content.
Would appreciate if someone could investigate whether this is a
browser/codec issue or a deeper problem with media support on Ubuntu.
