detection of demuxed streams change has broken flashblock
With the new update, Flashgot now interferes with flashblock.
I have traced it back to something being performed in this script that no longer behaves correctly with the new version of flashgot.
blocking this file will allow the video to start, but then blocks comments and other aspects of the site.

What do you mean, exactly by "interfering" (step to reproduce)?Diceman wrote:With the new update, Flashgot now interferes with flashblock.

Does downgrading FlashGot actually help?
Does the Error Console (Ctrl+Shift+J) show anything interesting?

Re: detection of demuxed streams change has broken flashbloc
Actually, it wasn't a recent change in flashgot that has caused this, the issue can be reproduced as far back as 1.5.5.7, so it must be a change on youtubes side that is causing flashgot to interfere with flashblock
upon updating to flashgot 1.5.5.7+, youtube is no longer functional so long as flashblock is enabled
The blocked applet icon appears momentarily and then is replaced by a solid black frame
STR
Install flashgot and flashblock
navigate to a video on youtube
the video will appear as the usual flashblock clickable frame but then disappear and look like this
where it should look like
Going back to 1.5.5.6 and the flashblock button appears as normal.
1.5.5.7rc introduced these
+ Youtube signature decoding algorithm (SDA) sniffing
(thanks "user" for patches)
+ Youtube SDA sniffing automatically triggered if
stream checks fail
+ flashgot.media.YouTube.decode_signature_func.auto
preference to control whether SDA sniffing should
be automatic or manual (UI-driven)
x More resilient internal preference setting API
Toggling flashgot.media.YouTube.decode_signature_func.sandbox to false brings back the flashblock clickable frame

3 errors occur in the error console but only when flashgot.media.YouTube.decode_signature_func.timestamp is set to true

Re: detection of demuxed streams change has broken flashbloc
Sorry, I meant flashgot.media.YouTube.decode_signature_func.sandbox;true
turning this off removes the errors and restores the flashblock frame to working.

Re: detection of demuxed streams change has broken flashbloc
Thank you. That code has been kindly contributed by "user", a genius of Youtube stuff. I'm checking if sandboxing is really needed from a security standpoint.Guest wrote:Sorry, I meant flashgot.media.YouTube.decode_signature_func.sandbox;true

Re: detection of demuxed streams change has broken flashbloc
Oops, looks like the main problem is you using Firefox 13/16. Why?
Could you upgrade to latest ESR (24)?

Re: detection of demuxed streams change has broken flashbloc
The second error message looks odd.
What's in your flashgot.media.YouTube.decode_signature_func preference?
URL of the video?

I guarantee its got nothing to do with the firefox version, it reproduces in nightly as well.Giorgio Maone wrote:Oops, looks like the main problem is you using Firefox 13/16. Why?

I use 16 still because of issue 781414

Re: detection of demuxed streams change has broken flashbloc
exact same behaviour on my side also. I created an account just to post this. This was after recent flashgot update.

Re: detection of demuxed streams change has broken flashbloc
the 1.5.5.95 update tripped me up as well, but its actually a change on youtubes side - the google+ integration has fluffed up the sandbox, since it goes back all the way to 1.5.5.7 and i know for sure there was no problem back then (and flashblock has not been updated between then and now)mitzone wrote:exact same behaviour on my side also.

Re: detection of demuxed streams change has broken flashbloc
I came here to the forums looking for a solution to the problem between FlashGot and Flashblock. I hadn't updated the FlashGot plugin in a while, and when I finally did, I found that Youtube videos were getting up by a black box. At this point I'm using FF27.0.1 on Windows 7/64. I went through creating a new FF user profile to see if I could narrow down what was causing Youtube to not work -- I suspected it wasn't Flashblock, since I hadn't updated it at all (I had updated about a dozen other add-ons). I finally narrowed it down to just this two add-ons together.Guest wrote:Sorry, I meant flashgot.media.YouTube.decode_signature_func.sandbox;true
turning this off removes the errors and restores the flashblock frame to working.
Anyway, I can get Youtube working again just by setting this:
Code: Select all
flashgot.media.YouTube.decode_signature_func.sandbox:false

Re: detection of demuxed streams change has broken flashbloc
I don't know what's happened, but I just looked at 98rc1 and it's missing the fallback code. Merged it again:
Code: Select all
