Hello,
this is my first post here. I am an ex Mint user who wanted to try a new distro, so I am a bit used to just installing the OS and have it 'just werk' so I need a little help with this. I searched a little and couldn't find an answer, so sorry if it's common knowledge for you.
I can't view streams from Twitch.
I have installed the media codecs as the sticky says (I also installed flash, but disabled it in the addons of Firefox - I keep it just in case a site absolutely requires it), but Twitch does not play for me! It only works when I turn flash on, which is weird as on Mint (or Windows), Twitch works without flash (it has a html5 player which is turned on by default), and out of the box at that.
I get a black screen with 'No supported video backend available ; Flash is not installed'.
Anybody has an idea?
Thanks in advance.
edit:
if it helps solve the problem (it might be related for all I know), https://www.youtube.com/html5 show that h264 and MSE are not supported by my FF.
