Youtube 4k quality option not showing up with Waterfox #706

Closed Kherby closed 3 years ago

Kherby commented 6 years ago

I'm using Waterfox 56.2.2 64-bit on my Win 10 machine. I really like the performance compared to my old Firefox ESR 52.x but for some reason there is no more Youtube 4K content showing up ? 1080p is the highest option i can choose...

Is there any way to fix this or is Waterfox simply not compatible with youtube 4k contents ?

Kherby commented 6 years ago

Nvm, i've fixed it... media.mediasource.webm.enabled was set to false, setting it to true did the trick and now the 4k quality option is showing up!

jbeich commented 6 years ago

Waterfox won't offer 4K on YouTube if VP9 decoding is slower than H.264, see https://github.com/MrAlex94/Waterfox/blob/715e79f8f87e9f96e4a26f92ee02c8aec0c3b4e6/dom/media/mediasource/MediaSource.cpp#L86 Windows has VP9 acceleration since 788c9353ccb7, so it shouldn't happen unless your GPU is blacklisted, media.benchmark.vp9.fps is out of date, etc.

Kherby commented 6 years ago

Sorry but i dont understand this at all... my gpu is Intel HD620. media.benchmark.vp9.fps 143 After setting media.mediasource.webm.enabled > true 4k is showing up and working fine. (vp9 (313) / opus (251) Maybe my config is messed up from using Firefox ESR 52 before... I've imported bookmarks, settings aso after the first start of Waterfox... Could this be the problem?

jbeich commented 6 years ago

media.benchmark.vp9.fps=143

What's the value in Firefox? Waterfox disables WebM for media.mediasource.webm.enabled=false because of media.benchmark.vp9.threshold=150.

Note, in Firefox ESR52 VP9 hardware decoding is disabled by default. I wonder how it affects the benchmark. https://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev/blob/esr52/modules/libpref/init/all.js#L356

Kherby commented 6 years ago

media.benchmark.vp9.fps=156 in FF ESR52 media.mediasource.webm.enabled=false is standart in FF ESR52 media.wmf.vp9.enabled=true is standard in Waterfox 56.2.2 and false in FF ESR52.

It is realy weird. Is there a safe way to load the default config/settings for Waterfox without deleting my Bookmarks, Passwords aso ? I find it kinda strange that 4k playback (vp9) on youtube isn't supported with the default config... I dont need Firefox ESR52 anymore but i haven't uninstalled it yet because i first wanted to make sure that Waterfox is running fine.

Btw, Firefox ESR52 was causing a CPU load of ~66% with youtube @4k while Waterfox and ungoogled Chromium is only showing a CPU load of ~13% at the same 4k video (i guess because of media.wmf.vp9.enabled=false)!! CPU: i5 7200U (the cpu is undervolted (Core voltage offset -0,090v) so it holds the 3.1GHz Turbo boost all the time) Driver Intel HD620: 23.20.16.4973 (undervolted -0,080v) OS: Win 10 x64, 1803

Oh and another thing i noticed is that Watferfox doesn't show any statistik for dropped frames at youtube 4k (right click > statistics for nerds). edit: https://imgur.com/e6rhwe2

I think that my config is somehow screwed up... :/

Kherby commented 6 years ago

So i did a backup of my passwords and bookmarks and uninstalled firefox ESR52 and also deleted the profiles in AppData. Then i uninstalled Waterfox and also deleted profiles and reinstalled it...

Now youtube 4k option is showing out of the box my the high CPU load is back, ~70% when watching a 4k video at youtube!! :/

How can i fix this ?

media.wmf.vp9.enabled;true
media.benchmark.vp9.threshold;150
media.mediasource.webm.enabled;true (changed this)

I really don't understand this why the high CPU load is back again... It's so freaking weird! Please help me, i want to use Waterfox as my main browser and watch 4k youtube without having my CPU running at 70%...

edit: It seems that GPU0 - Video Decode isn't used anymore and that's why the cpu load is so high once again... For example chromium is using GP0 - Video Decode when watching 4k at youtube. It was working fine with Waterfox before, i don't understand why its not used anymore with a fresh install and profile! How can i tell Watferfox to use GPU Video Decode again?

Kherby commented 6 years ago

Okay so it seems that media.hardware-video-decoding.failed=true is responsible for the high CPU load! I wonder why it is set to true on a fresh install? I've set it to false and high CPU load is gone... My GPU does support hardware-video-decoding so why was it set to true and why it didn't happen with my last installation (same version)? Imho there is clearly something wrong with the detection...

grahamperrin commented 6 years ago

For what it's worth,

about:config?filter=media.hardware-video-decoding.failed

… undervolted …

Is the issue reproducible without under-volting?

… something wrong with the detection …

Kherby commented 6 years ago

I've tried everything without undervolting and it was the same. The high ram usage also returned today with only 3 active tabs... (https://github.com/MrAlex94/Waterfox/issues/711) I'm think that i'll give up on Waterfox for now as i don't know how to debug these kind of problems and i need a "stable" browser for my daily usage that works fine out of the box.
