No Video Uplad on Whats App Web

[Tomminger]

Hello,
I compiled successfully the actual Simple Browser Demo.
with cef_binary_3.3440.1805.gbe070f9_windows32.tar.tar
Then I load with Simple Browser WhatsApp Web. -> https://web.whatsapp.com/
After QR code Login I try to Upload a MP4 Video File via right Menu Button.
But every time I try, I got the Error
Not supported File.
Whats going wrong?
One Month before this works without any Problem.
Images (JPG,PNG, etc) works without any Problems.
Uploading the MP4 Video with Chrome Browser works.
Regards from Germany
Tom

Hi,

Please, read this thread :

This might be the same case. Chrome has all the proprietary codecs enabled but the CEF3 binaries from Spotify have only the open source codecs.

Try uploading videos that use any of these codecs :

• Ogg Theora
• WebM with VP8
• WebM with VP9

Hello,
*.OGV Videos are not Supportet by WhatsApp.

Only *.MP4 and *.M4V Videos.

If you can't find a codec that is supported by WhatsApp and the official Spotify CEF3 binaries then you can build the CEF3 binaries with proprietary codecs enabled following this guide :

Hello,
can you please explain me how to build the MP4 or M4V codecs for CEF4.

On the other Side, I do not understand why it worked 2 months ago?

I'm sorry but I'm not a Visual Studio expert.

Read the generic CEF3 project building guide and the rest of the documents in that Wiki for more information :
https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... ndBuilding

After that, read the forum link I posted previously to enable proprietary codec support :

Perhaps they changed something in the web page or the video used a different codec.

No, is the same Video, that works some month ago.

Please, try to upload that video using the official CEF3 application for Windows :
