No Script blocking Google Video Chat

Post by photoray »

Any way to unblock Google video chat (The one inside Gmail)? I have to disable No Script to get it to work right now.
Thanks.

Are you using 1.9.9.39?
If not, could you install it?
If that doesn't work, could you check latest development build 1.9.9.40?

If the problem persist, where does it block exactly?
Are you using "Apply these restrictions to trusted sites as well"?

Hi Giorgio and thank you for replying.
Yes I am using the latest build, 1.9.9.39
The problem is when I go to use the video chat. Google shows I'm logged in OK but does not allow me to use the option to start a Video chat as it tell me that I must install that feature first and shows me as logged in with the Green Dot instead of the Camera icon. I don't know how to enable No Script to allow this function to work.
I have google.com and googleusercontent both allowed which is all it asks for. I have also tried allow scripts globally and that doesn't work either. The only way I can get it to work is to disable No Script when I want to use Video chat.
Is there another setting I can change in the options?

BTW Im using the latest Firefox build 3.6 and Windows 7.

Just tried that along with previous versions and still the same problem. I have tried 3 different computers and the same problem exists. :?

Could you check if any message [blue] or error [red] appear in Tools|Error console when you try to use Video Chat? (please ignore warnings [yellow] as they're usually unrelevant).

No there isn't any red of blue errors. I opened the console before opening gmail to see if any would start and nothing happened. When I tried to start a video conversation, Google chat just told me that I needed to install the voice/video app. When I stop No Script, the video option is available and works.

Can you see any "Blocked objects" item in NoScript's menu?

Only saw google-analytics.com in the recently blocked sites dropdown.. When I enabled that, it made no difference. Is there an address I need to add to the White list maybe, other than whats already there?

This is what's in the white list now:
google.com
googleapis.com
googlesyndication.com
googleusercontent.com

OK this is odd. I am noticing that sometimes the video chat is enabled, sometimes not. If I refresh the page, it will enable. Next time I log in or go out of and come back to it, it disables itself again.
