So after updating to 5.0 my Galaxy S4 became unable to play embedded videos. It also has become unable to play gifs but this may be in just Reddit Is Fun App. Specifically it seems the HTML 5 player on my phone isn't working, whenever I try to play the HTML 5 video versions of videos on Gfycat they don't play, but the gifv videos do. The player on the site just shows a black box, has quality, sound, and casting options. I can still move the time point around but it just stays black and doesn't play. All videos on Youtube, Clover, and Twitter still work fine. I have tried multiple web browsers including Firefox and Dolphin but neither work. I mainly use Chrome but after uninstalling updates, clearing it's data, I don't think it's a problem with the browser. If anyone has any advice, I'd be greatly appreciative!

I just tried a page with an embedded video that Dolphin and Boat couldn't handle, but Naked Browser did just fine.

No idea if it used that though. Doubtful but there it is.
