Very large videos will not play for me. I'm using FF3.0.4 Java console output for a video which plays normally: http://mediawiki.pastey.net/103938-1f1v (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Conspiracy_-_Chaos_Theory_-_320x184_-_500kbpsVID_-_48kbpsAU.ogg) Compared to a video which doesn't play: http://mediawiki.pastey.net/103939-40j4 (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Screencast_-_Spam_blacklist_introduction_and_COIBot_reports.ogg) I noticed this in the case where the video doesn't play: 81 [WARN] ogg: pageout gave -1 82 [INFO] ignoring unknown stream 28726 83 [INFO] ignoring unknown stream 28727 I'm guessing that's the audio and video getting ignored & thus nothing gets played. Several others have been able to play the video in question, so it is not a problem with the file.

As well, Brion and someone else reported to me the day this bug was opened that the files played in Cortado for them. Feel free to let me know what information would be helpful in diagnosing and solving this.
The OggHandler extension is not under active development anymore. It is unlikely that there will be any further active development. OggHandler has been superseded by TimedMediaHandler: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TimedMediaHandler Please use TimedMediaHandler instead. Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping. Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if either anyone takes the responsibility for active development of OggHandler again; or move this bug report from the "OggHandler" to the "TimedMediaHandler" component in Bugzilla if the same problem still happens when using TimedMediaHandler. Thanks.
