New to Ubuntu and Firefox. Want to ditch Chrome. I have the existing extensions and a list of recommendations. I believe I have just the one add-on.

I've tried searching for the answer but think I may be asking the wrong question to diagnose the problem. YouTube plays just fine.

I have encountered: - This video file cannot be played.(Error Code: 102630) - No compatible source was found for this media.

Thanks for any help, Varices

Do you have the FFmpeg package installed? On Linux, Firefox may need FFmpeg installed so it can handle MPEG-encoded video.

That might involve something like this, reported by a user in an old thread:

sudo apt install ffmpeg

Hi,

You could try to uncheck "use recommended performance" setting, and then uncheck " Use hardware acceleration when available" Then restart Firefox.

I hope this helps.

I did notice that I did not have the 'Play DRM-controlled content' box checked, so I checked that and tried the fix you recommended but had no luck.

I wonder if it is a plug-in I may need?

Thank you, Varices

YouTube is playing fine.

It seems to be mainly on news sites that I've gone to through FARK and on entertainment sites like thechive.

I set my preferences to allow autoplay video and sound and checked the box to play DRM-contained content.

From Adobe's help site, it appears as though I do not have Flash Player installed.

Would it be best to install that?

I appreciate the tips. Keep them coming! Varices

Note: Windows users should download the ActiveX for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the ActiveX.

The OS I'm running is Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS

I just saw this on YouTube (Trying to watch the Kobe Bryant memorial, I'm a SoCal guy):

Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available. Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video.

Other videos on YouTube videos are still playing fine.

I'll have to take a closer look into that.

I'll also check to upgrade my graphics driver

Many thanks for the tips, Varices

You got it! Thanks so much. Thank you, everyone, for all the help.

I unchecked both boxes in performance, set autoplay to allow audio and video, checked play DRM, and had toggled between the two driver options (ended up sticking to Nvideo Nouveau). I had even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox.

That fix did the trick and I'm set!

After the responses regarding Adobe, I looked at that a bit and found they are discontinuing support to Adobe Flash in 2020. So, I never tried that. I was completely unaware that had been announced.
