broomdodger 2018-09-13 07:03 reporter ~0009711	Well... It does not look like it has anything to do with libavcodec58 or the upgrade to ffmpeg 4.0.2 and related packages. All video and audio I have tried play with CHROMIUM. BUT most fail with FIREFOX even html5. What is happening? xubuntu WORKS manjaro WORKS kali-linux-light-2018-W12-amd64.iso WORKS all current daily and weekly FAIL

atdtphreaker 2018-09-13 07:09 reporter ~0009712	...experiencing SAME. Thanks for YOUR time.

sbrun 2018-09-18 10:03 manager ~0009745	Please update your system to get new firefox-esr version 60.2.0esr-1 (it has just been imported into kali-rolling). It fixes the issue for me. Let us know if you still have the issue.

atdtphreaker 2018-09-18 13:05 reporter ~0009746	@sbrun Working following UPDATE. Thank you.
