Description

Probably related to 9649253f6b8329

On my cell phone, when browsing the desktop site, the media player for audio files is "missing", behaving much like it has a 0 height. Videos are fine. Issue is on both file pages and normal articles, on both commons and en wikipedia.

Random example file for quick reference: [[File:BWV_543-prelude.ogg]]

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

Tested with Chrome on my Nexus7 (Android 5.0).

Caused by missing supported player:

Check used for native ogg support is:
dummyvid.canPlayType( 'video/ogg; codecs="theora, vorbis"' )
which evaluates to: ""

Some other tests:

dummyvid.canPlayType( 'video/ogg; codecs="vorbis"' );
""
dummyvid.canPlayType( 'audio/ogg; codecs="vorbis"' );
"probably"
dummyvid.canPlayType( 'application/ogg; codecs="vorbis"' );
"probably"
