Don't work on Safari but did on Firefox

Post by Spoutnik »

On the same page:
http://ici.tou.tv/7-par-jour/S01E01?autoplay=true
I see the ad at the beginning of the video in Safari but not on Firefox. Why?
version Adblock plus 1.8.12 -- Safari 8.0.5 -- OSX 10.10.3

Note: the page can only be seen in Canada I think. So use a proxy if you need it

if flash, due to the safari limits the video ads can't be blocked
Adblock Plus for Safari is based on Adblock Plus for Chrome and Opera, but has a few limitations, mostly due to limitations of Safari:
Popups can't be blocked.
XMLHttpRequests can't be blocked.
Requests initiated by third-party plugins like Flash can't be blocked. This mostly affects in-video ads (like prerolls), however not those on YouTube, which are blocked in a different way.
it seems the site is not accepting html5 technology, so ...use other browser to watch video online
