My Browser Builds (Part 5)
AstroSkipper replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
@roytam1 Do you have any information about changes in terms of the session (re)store function in New Moon 28 made in the recent past? Two old but well-known extensions do not work any longer in New Moon 28. The extensions Tab Utilities 2.12 and Speed Dial 0.9.6.18 interfere with NM's session restore which unfortunately makes them unusable. And even the Session Manager 0.8.1.14 extension does not work as before. It has now to be configured in another way to make it work again in recent browser releases. BTW, I already mentioned a session restore issue here: So, another question is under which conditions will the "Restore Previous Session" entry be enabled and not greyed out? -
Personally, I do not use any complete themes in UXP browsers but they have always been responsible for problems. Without regular theme updates, they don't really make sense. And these no longer exist. When using the most recent releases of UXP browsers without these problematic extensions I reported in my previous posts, the internal, native session restore function is actually working properly. So you don't have to stick with old UXP browser versions.

Same applies to the extension Speed Dial 0.9.6.18. It makes the internal session manager unusable in New Moon 28. Even the Session Manager extension can no longer help. So, it seems that the changes to the browser code are sending further, old but well-known extensions into retirement for good. The Tab Utilities,the Speed Dial and partly the Session Manager extension are no longer fully compatible with New Moon 28 (and also most probably with Pale Moon).

Tab Utilities Phoenix 2.1.2 seems to have been interfering with the native session manager in New Moon 28 for some time. The current session is no longer restored correctly after (re)starting the browser. When disabling Tab Utilities Phoenix, the native session restore function seems to work again as before. Can anyone confirm this?

Yep! But this toggle button does not work on playlists in New Moon 28 when using the VORAPIS V3 frontend. At least not for me. Whether it works in the original YT interface, I can't say as this modern interface is totally unusable on my Windows XP computer. -

When using the TURBOLAUNCHER script, you are automatically using the "long", full version of the VORAPIS V3 userscript. The TURBOLAUNCHER script is a launcher which processes and launches the actual VORAPIS V3 userscript. The advantage is for example the processing which is first done before finally loading the complete script for execution in the browser. That's why @UCyborg could execute the replaceALL command before then using this modified version of the userscript locally. So in the end, you are always using the script Vorapis.user.js, only in different variants depending on the code inside the launcher script. Another advantage is that you are always using the most recent version of the VORAPIS V3 userscript without the need to manually modify it. As long as the browser or the userscript have not been fixed, the modified TURBOLAUNCHER 2.1.0.0 userscript is currently the best option for using the VORAPIS V3 frontend in UXP browsers in terms of the already reported issues. -

I never got the remaining time displayed on the video player. How would that normally work? Usually, I only get the time already elapsed and the total time. I should mention that I am never signed in to my Google Account when playing YT videos in New Moon 28. Edit: I found a working script to retrofit the remaining time on the video player in New Moon 28: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/19120-youtube-remaining-time -

Due to my hardware specs, I can't run 1080p videos on my Windows XP computer, neither in browsers nor in external players. My comment refers to medium qualities up to 480p. But I also use this extension or a script version of h264ify to ensure avoiding unwanted codecs. And I disabled too demanding codecs via prefs. -

For using this modified script, the @updateURL should be removed as the modification will be overwritten again with the next script update. I use the original script to receive regular updates and to see how the script develops. And all videos I tried to play worked without any problems in New Moon 28. No crashes and no resets after a few seconds as it was before. In any case, YouTube videos are working fine again in UXP browsers and especially in New Moon 28. -

You didn't follow the discussion. The search box issue only appears when using the VORAPIS V3 frontend and not the original YT interface. -

You didn't read the previous posts: https://msfn.org/board/topic/185966-my-browser-builds-part-5/?do=findComment&comment=1273128 https://msfn.org/board/topic/185966-my-browser-builds-part-5/?do=findComment&comment=1273143 https://msfn.org/board/topic/185966-my-browser-builds-part-5/?do=findComment&comment=1273152 Long story short. I have already identified the cause of the issue. It is an old bug already fixed in more recent Firefox versions, identified by @roytam1 who will try to fix it if possible. -

What is this? The main script inside the legacy extension turbolauncher.xpi. -
My Browser Builds (Part 5)
AstroSkipper replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Everything works for me. The userscript Vorapis.user.js, the script patcher.user.js from the webextension, the webextension Project_VORAPIS_OBT_Test_0.8.10.26_(1727286007541).zip itself, the launcher webextension v3_get_old_youtube_layout-1.0.8.xpi and the legacy extension turbolauncher.xpi. The only issue I have is the missing suggestions in the YT search box while typing in UXP browsers. -

Sorry, no. And here is the proof that it is also working in a private window: -

Yep! But I don't know why and what they do. This turbolauncher 2.0.9.9 extension also works for me in New Moon 28. So, I can't confirm your statement. If you use it in Pale Moon and probably also in the 64-bit version of Pale Moon, then it may well be that the extension does not work, at least what I read in the Discord thread. Under Windows XP 32-bit, the VORAPIS V3 scipt and the corresponding extensions work in New Moon 28, Serpent 52 and Mypal 68. I haven't tested so far other browsers. -

No. Maybe. For me, normal password does not work anymore in Mailnews but only in the web interface. -

Today, I also tried to change my old Hotmail/Outlook account from normal password, which no longer works in Mailnews, to OAuth2. Unfortunately, the popup window was somewhat broken. No button for applying and no description where to insert inputs. Here is a screenshot from this broken OAuth2 popup window: -

When I pasted your link into the address bar, this was the link I got. No more, no less. But more interesting is whether it now works for you or not. -

The YouTube website https://www.youtube.com/@LinusTechTips/videos?cbrd=1 works properly with the VORAPIS V3 script in New Moon 28. And yes, this userscript actually works without any additional instructions. Here is a screenshot: I guess you did something wrong, or you are using incompatible filters which interferes with the script. The message "Warning: Content Security Policy: Couldn’t process unknown directive ‘require-trusted-types-for’" is not relevant for your issue but the error message "Error: TypeError: NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource". Which browser do you use for the script? Please, test the script in a new, clean profile! And install this Greasemonkey version in New Moon 28: https://github.com/janekptacijarabaci/greasemonkey/releases/download/3.31.4Fork/greasemonkey-3.31.4-pm_forkBranch.xpi Additionally, check your network settings and for testing purpose, disable your adblocker if you use one! And ensure that no security software is blocking the script! -

If links are broken here in @roytam1's posts, you can directly download the files from his server https://o.rthost.win/, only if they really exist there, of course. I have just downloaded them, and they are definitely there. -

I assume "shoehorning the patch" means adapting the patch for UXP browsers and being able to insert it. I really hope it is possible and that it works. -

Any chance to get it into the UXP codebase?
