Adblock Plus for Edge breaks Tumblr videos with easyprivacy enabled.

[BaronHK]

Environment

Windows 10 Home Edition x64 Build 1607 (Anniversary Edition)
Microsoft Edge 38.14393.0.0
Adblock Plus 1.1.0.0 for Microsoft Edge from Microsoft Store

Filter lists: EasyList, EasyPrivacy.

How to reproduce

1. Install Adblock Plus for Microsoft Edge.
2. Enable EasyPrivacy filter.
3. Try to load videos on Tumblr.

...

Observed behaviour

Videos appear as pictures with no play button when EasyPrivacy is loaded.

Filtering Tumblr archive to only show videos never brings up the page.

Expected behaviour

Videos have a play button and play. Filtering archive to videos loads videos.

Workaround: Disable EasyPrivacy and videos on Tumblr play.

I checked to see if this was a filter problem by uninstalling Adblock Plus and installing Betafish Adblock and both filters, and Tumblr videos display and play normally.

I meant to say with EasyPrivacy enabled. Sorry. It won't let me edit the title.

Could you provide an example page / video ?

This one is affected.

With EasyPrivacy on it never loads.

With EasyPrivacy off, it works.

it seems in firefox + ABP it's the same behaviour, so could you try this filter:
@@||assets.tumblr.com/assets/scripts/vendor/cedexis/

I tested in edge,the page above needs this filter
@@||secure.assets.tumblr.com/analytics

Strange that it does not affect me in Firefox, but it does with Edge. So I can't test your filter. Maybe it's something different with my Firefox? I use the 64-bit Windows version of the Firefox ESR branch. I'm currently using Firefox 45.4 ESR. A pre-release test build. Never had problems on Tumblr with Firefox as a result of using Adblock Plus.

The first thing I suspected in Edge is one of my filters, so I turned them off one by one and hit F5 until the page worked, then turned all but EasyPrivacy back on and it continued working. It might be an ABP issue because Tumblr videos work with Betafish Adblock with EasyPrivacy on.

I'll go back and try your suggested filter in Edge with ABP and see what happens.

Okay, I can confirm that as of today with most recent filters, the problem still occurs in ABP Edge with EasyPrivacy, but adding the filter you suggested for MS Edge unbreaks Tumblr videos in the "archive" pages, but not on some of the pages themselves.

I found another case where video breakage happens with ABP and EasyPrivacy loaded, even with the filter you suggested for MS Edge.

Right now, the videos have a play button with EasyPrivacy disabled, but doesn't with EasyPrivacy enabled. With the filter you suggested for MS Edge, you can load the videos from the page in Archive mode though.

add also
@@||amung.us$domain=tumblr.com
@@*tumblr$domain=tumblr.com
@@*analytics$domain=tumblr.com

however, in chrome, firefox there's no need of such filters, so edge is far away from the usually "standard".
Let's see the devs opinion ..

Whether the play button appears correctly seems sporadic regardless of filter subscriptions/ABP state. Even with ABP disabled many of the play buttons on the test case mentioned above (​​http://funnyfailvideos.tumblr.com/) do not appear one refresh, but do on another.

So I'm not sure if it's our issue or a Tumbler issue with Edge?
