html5 - H.264 Streamed Video Works in Chrome 23 but not Chrome 24, different request headers... same cherrypy backend -

chrome 23:

you may prepare problem doing following: there alternative in chrome://flags called "disable hardware-accelerated video decode" enable it.

and bug filed 3 weeks ago: http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome?view=rev&revision=178906. according status “fixed”. however, later on in comments saying prepare might pushed version m25 , fixed version 26.0.1395.1.

as test, have downloaded version 26 of chrome (the developer version), (re)disabled “disable hardware-accelerated video decode”, , works fine. if want same, visit chrome’s release page , take “dev channel windows”.
