Hi

Still i can't play videos on aftonbladet.se it says that my device can't play their videos. The native built in browser can without any problem... Can i excpect that Firefox will play this videos in a near future?

My device is HTC One (M7) with Android 4.4.3 installed as the latest available version of Android.

I have never had this kind of problem before, please tak a look at this. I've removed Firefox from my device and installed it again, i have installed the latest beta as well. I even restarted my device between the operations.

Added a screendump for you to see, in Swedish though. :)

Hello Todde :)

Your built in browser reads the videos because the built in browser have some kind of a integrated (coded) flash player in it, and only that browser uses it, mozilla and others can't. Mozilla doesn't have integrated, that's why you have to download Flash manually. I hope i helped you understand :)

Install Adobe Flash player on your Android device by downloading an archived version from Archived Flash Player versions on adobe.com.

Aha Why do we still have to do that :) I remember doing this a couple of years ago. :) Will try though. But why can the internal built in webbrowser play them without the flash installed?

It helped somewhat, i think this newspaper has 3 different ways of showing videos. Now i can see most of them. :)
