I cant Stream/Play online media

I cant seem to Stream/Play online media on Qubes app Qube using Freetube and on Amazon where you can play a video of a product, well nothing will actually play or attempt to play so its not like i dont have enough CPU as there is absolutely no attempt to play the media and was wondering if anyone knows what or if i need to select a specific Device listed on the Settings of a App Qube or something?

I’ve installed flatpak Freetube in an app qube and I can play youtube videos there just fine.
Describe in more details (maybe with screenshots?) what are you trying to do and what result do you get.

well i have freetube all set up and open and click play on a video and Nothing plays or even attempts to play but everything else looks normal other than that really.
I downloaded it to Fedora40 Template as a Flatpak i think (Offline)
Then i opened up a new App Qube based on Fedora40 and selected Freetube
Freetube v0.21.3 Beta

Are you able to play in browser of the same app qube the same video that’s not working in freetube?

Works fine for me as well

flatpak install flathub io.freetubeapp.FreeTube
flatpak run io.freetubeapp.FreeTube

i not know how to even try such a thing

is that to be ran in the Template or the app qube as it not work in the app qube?

I meant I installed freetube with flatpak in a qube and run it from there. As it was not installed in a template, it’s not persistent, this is the only change.

open a web browser in the same qube in which you run freetube, go on youtube website and try to watch a video

i just tried in chromium browser and no YT vid will play at all

Then it’s not a problem with Freetube but with your network connection.
Maybe your ISP blocked youtube.

so i dont need to go to SETTINGS - DEVICES and select a specific something for it to run like graphics card or something?

No.

I just tried to play something at odysee.com on 144p resolution and that not play either, i changed my IP address and same result.

This is a qubes setting or something im very sure as IP address all good to go

Can you check that pipewire-pulse is running in that qube after you try to play a video?

sudo ps aux | grep pipewire

Maybe it’s the same issue as this one:

Check which audio device is used in the PulseAudio Volume Control: click on the sound icon in the tray → Audio mixer

[user@fedora ~]$ sudo ps aux | grep pipewire
user 648 0.0 0.4 92572 5120 ? S<sl 13:49 0:00 /usr/bin/pipewire
user 3651 0.0 0.1 3948 2048 pts/0 S+ 15:15 0:00 grep --color=auto pipewire
[user@fedora ~]$

Do you have any errors in pipewire?

journalctl --user -u pipewire -b --no-pager

[user@fedora ~]$ journalctl --user -u pipewire -b --no-pager

Can you run the following command:

systemctl --user list-units | grep wire
systemctl --user list-units | grep wire

[user@fedora ~]$ systemctl --user list-units | grep wire
