hello -

its been a LONG time since i have posted here, but i notice that OGV video
files no longer appear to play on Chrome 120+ from what i can tell.   i
downloaded an OGV example and tried to play it here:

https://comptonpeslonline.com/comptonPractice/ogv-video-test/

you can still hear it, but can no longer see it.

here is the standalone OGV file:

https://comptonpeslonline.com//comptonPractice/ogv-video-test/flower.ogv

the samples are from here:   https://filesamples.com/formats/ogv

i was using BrowserStack and it plays fine up until Chrome 119 but Chrome
120 on up, it appears to have stopped working.

is ogv still actively supported?

Thank you,

Mark Edwards
