Why doesn't the Akamai Adaptive Media Player which is used for some Fox News videos work on Firefox?

It works on Edge but not Firefox.

Works fine here. Try disabling Adblock/uBlock.

Re: Akamai Adaptive Media Player
It is turned off for Fox News. I get a blank white space where the video should be.pintassilgo wrote:Works fine here. Try disabling Adblock/uBlock.
My only add ons are Adblock Plus, Clippings, Dashlane, and Forecastfox. I would think that only Adblock could cause a problem but it is off.
What is strange is I started playing with the performance settings by checking and unchecking and refreshing the page and it did not seem to help so I went back the the initial setting (use recommended settings). All of a sudden the video started to play. I refreshed the page and it would not play again. I played with performance settings again and it would still not play again.

Works for me with FF61.0.1. Try safe mode by restarting FF using Help > Restart with Add-ons disabled...

I restarted in safe mode and it worked. I then restarted with the add-ons enabled and it still worked. Something must have been triggered.
