My Japanese is only about this level.
This video is AV1. If it doesn’t play, please let me know what Lemmy/PieFed client you’re on.
On Android:
- Boost - doesn’t load.
- Voyager - plays fine
- PieFed PWA - plays fine
- Interstellar - just a link to play in the browser
- Blorp - plays fine
- Jerboa - plays fine
That’s all I have on my phone to test.
Thanks! Seems like it mostly works on Android but is limited by app support.
Chrome:
- lemmy&Alex UI: you have to open the link so the audio channel plays
- tesseract: plays.
Thanks! Wasn’t aware it behaved differently in Chrome. On Firefox, it seems to play with the audio just fine.

It’s showing “failed to load media 😢” on the Voyager app (iOS).
(Could location be a factor? 🤔)
How about this one? This one is VP9.
edit: I’m getting “failed to load media” on Android. I think Voyager doesn’t load videos in comments.
Ooh it works now!
I guess it’s an iOS / Android thing then.
Chrome:
- Audio works on lemmy&tesseract.
- Alex still external🔗
Testing if it’s posts vs comments:
CX
It’s posts. Avif audio plays on comments only.
Blatantly Alex borks link.
Works just fine on Eternity Android 16
Doesn’t load on Mlem for iOS.
AV1 is a weird format. I can play it on my Mac. I can play it on my iPhone in OutPlayer (like VLC but better, like you can have folders). But I don’t think any Apple products feature hardware decoding of it. It can be played though.
