I wouldn't say it's fixed.
First video is working now. Second show only few frames, third shows MIME error.

"Video format or mime type is not supported"

As of NoScript 5.0.5, the issue is still very much there.

This bug seems to be triggered by having a combination of NoScript, Greasemonkey, and having some kind of Greasemonkey script (ex - FuckFuckAdblock).

Disabling either NoScript, Greasemonkey, or all of the currently loaded Greasemonkey scripts resolves the issue. Unfortunately, this is not the ideal solution.

A slightly more ideal (albeit temporary) fix is to add the following exclusions to your scripts:

Once that is done, NoScript / Greasemonkey should stop breaking videos.

I hope NoScript can take a closer look at this issue and see why this is happening.

Do we know that it's not a Greasemonkey issue? - https://github.com/greasemonkey/greasem ... ssues/2500
*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!
