{"version":2,"width":238,"height":49,"timestamp":1715682676,"title":"less","env":{"SHELL":"/bin/bash","TERM":"xterm-256color"},"theme":{"fg":"#ffffff","bg":"#1e1e1e","palette":"#171421:#c01c28:#26a269:#a2734c:#12488b:#a347ba:#2aa1b3:#d0cfcc:#5e5c64:#f66151:#33da7a:#e9ad0c:#2a7bde:#c061cb:#33c7de:#ffffff"}}
[0.045786, "o", "\u001b]0;yodatak@fedora:~\u0007"]
[0.046166, "o", "\u001b]7;file://fedora/home/yodatak\u001b\\"]

and i got no colors insted of

yanis@fedora:~$ ls
Bureau  Documents  Images  Modèles  monfichiermagique  Musique  Public  Téléchargements  Vidéos  zsh

but when i play asciinema play less5.cast i got colors

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

install ascinema on default fedora workstation 40
put in player
white only text
See error

Expected behavior
Show the colors

Additional context
Maybe its because it dont detect the colors and only a white theme ( but i don't use it weird)
Maybe some gnome issue i don't understand

So you're missing the colors when replaying with the js player on your html page?

Do you use the latest version of the player? (don't forget about updating the CSS file too)

Support for original terminal colors was added in one of the recent versions of the player.
