Bug Summary

A video codec is broken and it prevents YouTube videos to play (some of them) and this also effects other websites. I also saw this problem in Firedragon (They forked Floorp). Firefox is fine with same videos. Here is the output from console (I get this output with safe mode tough) [Child 708942, MediaDecoderStateMachine #1] WARNING: Decoder=76120e859e00 Decode error: NS_ERROR_DOM_MEDIA_FATAL_ERR (0x806e0005) - Error no decoder found for audio/mp4a-latm: file /home/main-builder/pkgwork/src/firedragon-v11.15.0-1/dom/media/MediaDecoderStateMachineBase.cpp:164

Reproduction Steps

  1. Open Floorp
  2. Play one of the broken videos
  3. Get Error message after spaming (otherwise it will load infinitly)

Expected Behavior

Watching video

Actual Behavior

Not watching video =d

Screenshots

Browser Version

Latest

Operating System

Arch Linux (Latest packages)

Additional Context

I tried to install Floorp from AUR and chatic AUR and they both gave me same errors. I believe that it is because of the dependecies. I just installed base Arch Linux and the problem may be 'bout the missing dependecies
