Gstreamer/Epiphany on glitches on Debian, but not on flatpak

#1 Post by rorschach »

Does anyone have an idea what the problem or fix might be?

Streaming video in GNOME Web/Epiphany on Debian results in various bugs, including video speeding ahead while audio lags, hanging players, resume not working after a time, etc.

But this doesn't happen in flatpak.

It also didn't happen in Debian until I think about 2 years ago now. YouTube videos used to work flawlessly, but now they're extremely unreliable.

There have been other bugs related to Debian in the past that haven't applied to flatpak:

- pitivi had fixed a bug related to gstreamer editing services, but Debian's packages never reflected this fix
- certain sites have distorted audio on Debian, not on flatpak

Installed packages with "gstreamer" include:

Code: Select all

gir1.2-gst-plugins-bad-1.0
gir1.2-gst-plugins-base-1.0
gir1.2-gstreamer-1.0
gnome-sushi
gnome-video-effects
gstreamer1.0-clutter-3.0
gstreamer1.0-gl
gstreamer1.0-gtk3
gstreamer1.0-libav
gstreamer1.0-packagekit
gstreamer1.0-pipewire
gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad
gstreamer1.0-plugins-base
gstreamer1.0-plugins-good
gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly
gstreamer1.0-vaapi
gstreamer1.0-x
libclutter-gst-3.0-0
libges-1.0-0
libgstreamer-gl1.0-0
libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0
libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-0
libgstreamer1.0-0
libgtk-4-media-gstreamer
I didn't do anything besides basic full-upgrades to bring this about, so no new packages or removal of old packages. Bugs have been filed with Debian GNOME team and webkit gstreamer folks, but Debian folks are always unresponsive and the webkit guys have no idea (probably doesn't help that it only occurs on Debian).
