I have a locally-recorded video at
http://www.zefox.net/~bp/ampinvt/2nd_inverter/browser_viewable_2nd_inverter.mp4
It plays remotely using the default vlc media player that comes with RasPiOS,
but without sound (there isn't much, just some background noise).
It does not play, nor advance the progress bar, using chromium or firefox.
On YouTube the progress bar advances and thumbnails display, but the
normal video window remains blank when using chromium or firefox.
Copying a YouTube URL into vlc media player causes an error, which starts with
Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'https://rr2---sn-nvopjoxu-25ve.go

but I suppose that some deliberate access control by Youtube.
I'm still stumped and hoping this'll get by an upgrade, as in the past.
Thanks for writing!
