Problems playing embedded youtube video

Post by jw243 »

I cannot play the embedded video on the following web page with NSA enabled:

http://schwule-filmwoche.de/2015/home/programm/lilting/

The reason seems to be that NSA 3.5a10 does not offer me to whitelist "googlevideo.com", where the video is actually loaded from. NSA seems to sometimes not show all scripts available on an web page. Any idea why?

I am using Orfox 38.0 together with Orbot on Omnirom 5.1.1 on a Nexus 7 (2013).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well, at least on desktop, googlevideo is not a source of scripts, but an XHR destination and a source of audio/video (which are embeddings)...

(I don't have a mobile device.)

(As a work-around, if you manually Allow 'googlevideo.com' ?)

And how would I do that, add googlevideo.com manually?

Is there a file with the whitelist that can manually be changed? Where would that be located?

Isn't it stored as a JSON object in about:config in NSA ?
