Does anyone have any issues playing videos on twitter (or Facebook)?
I always get the message: "the media could not be played".

EDIT:

Fixed the issue. It was due to the uninstallment of K-Lite codec pack.

Oh my, the bugzilla emails are not buchered as they were before. Whatever miracle happened? (Is it a bugzilla, or a gmail miracle?)

Can someone confirm that about:blank and about:newtab tabs are not restored between sessions anymore?

[Virtual_ManPL]

@ Sdar - I can confirm this and FYI - I reported this here Bug 1323987 - about:blank and about:newtab aren't restored by Session Restore

Yeah it seems that instead of correctly fixing a bug they've decided not to load newtab and blank tabs and call it a day, so probably this will be resolved as invalid or wontfix even when this will change the default behavior of the browser.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

"It's not a bug, it's a feature"

[Sdar]

If a user decide to open a new tab why is messing with them on session restore a "net win"?

I mean let the user have whatever tabs they want, a session restore function should restore everything as it was on the last session.

[...Filters out not worth-saving tabs from session state...] any tab that have been opened by the user is worth saving, you shouldn't decide for the user.

I actually like it. The e-mails don't look like crap anymore. Since when is the feature available BTW?
