I'm having difficulty getting YouTube TV to work with this build. I'm getting an error "The video format is not supported." error when trying to watch anything on YouTube TV. The previous canary build worked fine.

Josh,

I cannot repro this.  YT worked just, at least, for myself, on latest Canary.

Cheers,

    It's YouTube TV, a paid subscription, Not the normal YouTube videos.

    Drew1903 YouTube works just fine. Its YouTube TV that is erroring out. Also I'm testing on a Surface Pro X which is an ARM device. So that might be a difference too. I'm also seeing errors in Amazon Prime Video which previous Canary versions didn't have.

      Did you enable any new flags or is the default configuration having that problem with Amazon prime and YouTube TV?

       

      because it smells like a DRM problem,

      try enabling or disabling these flags and see if it changes anything

      in here: edge://flags/

        HotCakeX I do not have the widevine option. I tried both enabling and disabling the PlayReady but still got the same problem on both YouTube TV and Amazon Video. Previously I had it set to Default.

      Right, understood. The ARM may be a factor, true.  I have gone back & tried YT TV.  I couldn't go all the way as it will only use American Zip Codes.  Ergo, all I can say is the site looked ok w/ animated 'demos' running.

      Cheers,
      Drew
