Hi,

I loaded a few YouTube videos in the MiniBrowser demo and I could hear sound.

Perhaps that web page uses proprietary audio codecs like AAC.

Try other web browsers with that web page to see if everything else is working correctly.

I tried that web page with MiniBrowser and started playing a game of "Go".

With the MiniBrowser found in the latest CEF4Delphi version I could hear a woman's voice when I made placed the pieces on the board.

However, when I tried the MiniBrowser demo from OldCEF4Delphi I couldn't hear anything. :oops:

I opened the DevTools in the MiniBrowser and there were many errors in the Console tab like these :
  • Uncaught TypeError : window.myfunc is not a function
  • Uncaught (in promise) DOMException : Unable to decode audio data
Perhaps the Chromium version used in OldCEF4Delphi is too old and it's not compatible with that audio format.

That's correct.

You can register a JavaScript extension that can be used to send a process message with the sound that must be played.
Make sure Windows XP can play that audio format or install the necessary codecs with your application.
