swfdec 0.6.8 was very recently released and added to portage, and surprisingly direct ffmpeg has not actually been removed (however it has been removed from 0.7.2 and up...).

I modified the 0.6.8 ebuild to use ffmpeg directly, and also included a teensy little patch which enables it to compile against ffmpeg 0.4.9_p20080326.

With it I can play videos on youtube just fine, with both audio and video, and with no gstreamer on my system.

Anyways, here's the ebuild if anyone else is interested in this;

Wow, first time I can view flash content on ppc decently :D

Normal sites work fine, but youtube & friends still do not work. I think it's a problem with the two players embedded one in another. Not sure what to do.

Cheers,
cjubon

Thar's odd, youtube works perfectly for me with this.

Could you post the output of the following?;
Code:
emerge -pv ffmpeg swfdec swfdec-mozilla mozilla-firefox

Sure. Here we go:
Code:
cjubon@g4:~$ emerge -pv ffmpeg swfdec swfdec-mozilla xulrunner mozilla-firefox

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Machine is an Apple G4 PB. Thanks for you help.

BTW, should I disable "treads" on non-smp machines?

Everything there is pretty much the same as mine, so I really don't know what's wrong...

AFAIK you should leave it enabled, and anyways they were the desktop defaults long before multi-core cpus became available.

Damnit, am I the only person this actually "just works" for?

Was audio working for you with swfdec in any setup in the past?

yes, btw, what version of alsa do you have, I think it started since I've upgraded my alsa to version 1.0.17, moreover, sound doesn't work either with the gstreamer included version.

Heh, I was just gonna say I'm still using alsa 1.16 for everything (headers, lib, etc), but nevermind.

Glad it works for someone other than myself.

cjubon;
Could you start firefox from an xterm (or whetever, just to see stdout & stderr), and see what's reported when you try to play a youtube clip?
