https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=238096 Bug ID: 238096 Summary: www/firefox: some videos don't have sound - include sndio in default audio options Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: gecko@FreeBSD.org Reporter: dch@freebsd.org Assignee: gecko@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(gecko@FreeBSD.org) e.g. https://www.invidio.us/watch?v=_oWcfUt9QUs (a silent gnn is a rare thing) the same video can be played directly via multimedia/mpv and it seems that firefox chooses incorrect codecs. while this may be specific to my computer setup, I have found that switching the backend to sndio resolves this issue, on 3 different systems (intel i915, USB audio devices, HDMI output). Is it possible to add SNDIO to the default OPTIONS_MULTI_AUDIO? the overall difference in size to www/firefox is negligable - a few KiB only, and it saves having to rebuild a very very large port each update. Alternatively, I can provide more debugging info if needed, I'm just not sure where to look for that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
