Bloomberg video not playing

Post by gasull »

Bloomberg video won't play, even if allowing all scripts. I need to disable the addon in order to play the video.

I got the video working after enabling these sites and permissions.

Code: Select all

bloomberg.com           script, fetch
akamaihd.net            fetch
bwbx.io                 script
gotraffic.net           script
imasdk.googleapis.com   script, frame
lldns.net               fetch
That's for FF60/NS10, but since you appear to use FF52, maybe there's something in this (https://forums.informaction.com/viewtopic.php?t=24761) thread that might help you if the settings above are not enough?

That was a bit of a pain.
uBlock was blocking something.
After that, Allow Global got it working.

Somewhat whittled down:

+bbthat.com
+2mdn.net
+nice264.com
+youboranqs01.com
+imasdk.googleapis.com
+bloomberg.tv
+gotraffic.net
+bwbx.io
+google.com
+crwdcntrl.net
+blob:
+bloomberg.com

That's a lot isn't it.
And that's quite different (from 10).
Could be that not everything there is needed, but its too much of a pain to try to get it any shorter.
(google.com is needed, it seems.)

Yep, it's the same issue as that thread. This is a NoScript bug, and Giorgio already has the fix. Not sure why it hasn't been released yet. I'll contact him again.

There was an error in the fix included in 5.1.8.6. Please re-check with latest development build 5.1.8.7rc4 (or 5.1.8.7 release).
