youtube flash vs html5 #119

Closed LimitlessPotential closed 9 years ago

LimitlessPotential commented 9 years ago

not quite sure if this is a problem or just me not setting it right but clicktoplugin defaults to flash on youtube and I'd rather it went to html5. Any advice?

If this doesn't solve the issue, please provide more details (expected result vs actual result).

Leaving the YouTube killer enabled prevents YouTube from detecting H.264 support. Compare https://www.youtube.com/html5 before and after enabling the YouTube killer.

Indeed, that's part of the "hack" mentioned in the FAQ. If you don't want that then you also don't need the YouTube killer.

@hoyois When I right-click and restore YouTube's player, is it possible to have it show the HTML5 player instead of the Flash one?

@nayefc No.
