Old description:
This is hrev50152.
MediaPlayer show "General system error" when trying to open webm video
with VP9 video and Opus audio codecs. WebPositive play this file, but
with lags.
MediaPlayer write following in Terminal:
{{{

As I understand Haiku use ffmpeg so enabling this codecs should be not
difficult.
