[arch-general] qtwebkit and html5 video

[Shridhar Daithankar]

Hello All,

this has been bothering me for some time, so just posting for wider audience.

Facts, all applicable to rekonq and konqueror with webkit part

- I have qtwebkit,kwebkitpart and rekonq installed

- I am on youtube html5 demo trial. youtube.com/html5 reports support for webm 
and h.264 support

- html5test.com reports video element support with MPEG-4/H.264/Ogg 
Theora/WebM. I have gstreamer phonon backend with most of the codecs 
installed.

- youtube html5 video does not work. I get a progress bar but no video frames. 
example URL tested http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTA1MTQ 
as it has couple of youtube videos embedded

- videos from vimeo.com does not play either.

google isn't helpful. and there is no bug in arch linux bug db. 

Does anybody else experience this too?
