    Have you tried opening the page with Serpent 52.9? Isn't Serpent 52.9 the most feature rich among Roy's releases? I base that on html5test website results...

    I have experimented with cache in Serpent (52.9) a bit (mainly to compare with behaviour of K-Meleon) and found it's best to disable the Mozilla's experiment that went nowhere: browser.cache.frecency_experiment = -1 (that is its default value anyway for OFF_state). There are also some RAM-only options but I don't really need those: browser.cache.compression_level = 9 > this save memory compressing data to maximum browser.cache.disk.enable = false > this disable disk cache for http browser.cache.disk_cache_ssl = false > this disable disk cache also for https browser.cache.memory.enable = true > this enable memory cache only

    You may or may not remember when a few weeks back I posted about Youtube shorts not displaying properly, skipping to the next one or previous one (in my Serpent 52.9 on WinXP x86) - problem solved - I finally aligned my partitions (to 4k sectors) after so many years of neglect i suppose. Now they play well from one to the next with the same version of Serpent (2023-04-13).

    Hey all! Great new release! I wonder why in recent releases of Serpent 52.9 (on XPSP3) scrolling through youtube short videos is more likely than not broken (I use screen resolution of 1680x1050). When loading a short it plays and when wanting to go to the next one with down arrow the browser goes there but then quite quickly jumps back up to previous one. This is quite frustrating. I do use ublock origin with the browser. Thanks.

    A rather funny Serpent 52.9 crash just happened - I was watching youtube for some time and then HWunBoxed video RTX4070Ti against RX7900XT and the message about basilisk encountering error popped up. The video was still going for a while and then stopped and if I dragged the error window all over the screen (which I did) resulted it this lovely picture (attached). When I "click(ed) here" it said it has to do with mozglue.dll or something similar. BTW thank you for the new release, roytam1, starting from last week's each now is much more up to date and faster working than ever before. After a Serpent restart it works normally again.

    I hope all goes well for you, @roytam1. You have been a tremendous source of hope for our aging systems.

    Thank you - at first I was skeptical because of FF/42.0, but this really speeds the site up! Mighty fine.

    I would like to know if anything can be done about quite slow loading (initial delay) of Youtube in Serpent 52 on WinXP (x86)?
  9. modnar
    Thank you for the latest build of Serpent. I wonder - could you make Zoom work with audio in Serpent? Would be very useful.

    I was reading Techpowerup review of nvidia flounders edition rtx 4080 and cannot play videos in the Serpent browser (52.9). It is not a big problem (there are tons of reviews on YT), however would like to know if this can/will be fixed.

    Mighty fine, mighty fine! Serpent 52.9 sits this one out... I chose Serpent as my replacement for Mozilla Fireferret 52.9 because it scored the highest on http://html5test.com and still does 481 out of 555, KMGoanna does 439 same as New Moon. Am I correct in such classification?
  12. modnar
    Thank you for your replies; I checked the KMeleon (Roytam1's Goanna version) and it played the videos fine. I'll try spoofing...
  13. modnar
    Is anyone experiencing youtube videos randomly not playing, just circling as if loading and nothing; I'm using the latest Serpent 2022-08-06?
  14. modnar
    Sadly, same here with "Help"->"About Serpent": v52.9.0 (2022-07-06) (32-bit) posted saturday 07-09. Also same in a bit older version of Roytam1's K-Meleon (Goanna) and same with much older RT's New moon browser from 2022-04-01 (27.10.0, 32-bit) on XP SP3 x86. Blank/black page with all three. And of course same with Firefox 52.9.0 (XP-last).

    Mighty fine! Everything needed works in the latest build (20220706/9), turns out that problem saving files went away after I compared refreshed prefs.js and my profile's prefs.js and modified (mainly) the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone to 4.8.5.
  16. modnar
    Thank you, @XPerceniol , for your reply; I shall wait another week for the next best version, those zeroed settings should be settled by then I hope.
  17. modnar
    Thank you for the newest release, however on XP x86 Serpent 52.9 version 20220625 the "Save As" dialog doesn't work and the latest 20220702, nothing works/doesn't even connect to internet (I'm using DSL). So I reverted to 20220618, the last one which works properly...
  18. modnar
    Thank you roytam1 for another good release. That site is shown properly in Serpent 52.9 (on XP x86).
  19. modnar
    Thank you for your effort! Basilisk52-g4.8.win32-git-20220402-f94c0da-uxp-21d56c9c9-xpmod works very well (on XP x86).
  20. modnar
    Here too, WinXP x86, build 20220226 of Serpent 52.9 works splendidly.
  21. modnar
    I use @roytam1's Serpent browser (52.9.0) in my XP (x86) and it is a great experience. Everything works, only 20220326 version is somehow borked - HD light is on and pages load really slowly, so I reverted back to 20220226 version and is problem free again.
  22. modnar
    Is https://www.vsynctester.com/ of any importance? I tested it with Serpent 52.9.0 and sometimes it's even green but in KMeleon it's a mess. :-)

    I wonder could it be done on XP that Serpent or all these browsers would know the amount of RAM a graphics card has (now listed as "Unknown" under "Troubleshooting Information" subject "GPU #1")? Perhaps it could read it from DXdiag where for my GTX980_4GB it says 4095MB (and not 4096), so it fits XP's 32-bitnessnessness. I thought the browser might act differently - perhaps even use more graphics RAM for videos and all kinds of images dancing on the screen instead of system RAM (we're limited to only 4095MB also), I mean these days browsers are heavily GPU-accelerated.

    I must ask - does the 52.9.1 ESR contain the "cubeb" fix? I would guess no. Indeed it is; I use Serpent/UXP as an upgrade to that fireferret (with youtube videos playback broken). Never looked back since. Plus Serpent/UXP scores better on html5test than FF 52 ESR while NewMoon does not if that's of any importance.
  25. modnar
    @nicolaasjan : A little late but still - I transferred my fireferret (52.9) profile to the Serpent/UXP browser and that's why had all my YT stuff already agreed upon and working with ublock/Legacy now.
