From the beginning I have had problems playing live videos on youtube (only with these).
First I tried with Firefox-ESR and now I am using Vivaldi in TC Plus 11.0 and I still have the same problem. I also tried the Xorg-7-7 installation but it gives me a lot of problems with XVesa.
Maybe I need to have the gst-plugins... but I don't know which ones.
Could you help me with that?

If you use vivaldi.tcz from the repo, h.264 video won't work. There is a bug in Vivaldi browser that prevents to support h.264 if Vivaldi is installed in /usr/local/vivaldi. It have to be installed in /opt/vivaldi and the libffmpeg.so need to be in /opt/vivaldi/lib. Even if I symlink to /opt/vivaldi it still won't work. I'll try to prepare installation script for vivaldi soon.
If you want to use firefox-esr.tcz with h.264 video you need to install libavcodec.tcz. Both browsers work with Xvesa, but if you need a GPU hardware acceleration you need Xorg.

You have Xvesa installed. Xlibs and Xprogs are dependencies of Xvesa. Xorg-7.7-lib is a dependency of various other programs.
--- Quote ---1) Should I install the rest of Xorg-7.7-*.tcz extensions (and remove Xvesa.tcz) so?. Or should I install only Xorg-7.7.tcz and remove Xvesa.tcz?

That depends. If you are trying to run programs that require Xorg , then you need to install it and remove the Xvesa.tcz entry
from your onboot.lst file. You can use the Apps utility to do that.
If you want to try Xorg:
1. Click on the Apps icon.
2. Click Apps->Maintenance->OnBoot Maintenance
3. Remove the Xvesa.tcz entry.
4. Close the Apps utility.
5. Click on the Exit icon.
6. Select Exit to Prompt.
7. Click OK
You are now in the console. Enter:
--- Code: ---tce-load -wil Xorg-7.7
startx
--- End code ---

I'm going to try the neonix' option. I'll let you know.

@neonix or @Rich
It will be OK if I will this ?
--- Code: ---
mv /usr/local/vivaldi/ /opt/
(thus the libffmpeg.so should be in /opt/vivaldi/lib automatically)
ln-s /opt/vivaldi/vivaldi /usr/local/bin/vivaldi
--- End code ---
If yes... what about with vivaldi icon from wbar?

Better try this (TC10 and TC11, 32-bit version), if this version will work for you I will prepare script with wbar icon later:
