Hi. I do not plan to maintain the video detection for sites that can play video without flash. When I started this project, the youtube HTML5 experiment only worked for a few videos but now it seems to me that every video can be played natively. On youtube comments and suggested video click do not works because it's in AJAX. I will eventually remove the youtube parser when no video will be detected at all.

Debian user reported format detection problems on Youtube, please see details on the following page: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=772421 Although reported for version 1.5.0 it seems that version 2.0.0 may be affected as well.
In regards to youtube video format detection may be youtube-dl https://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/ can provide some inspiration?
Besides I've noticed that once video-without-flash is activated on youtube, clicking other videos do not reload embedded video. Am I missing something?
Thanks.

Well then perhaps HTML5 module should be fixed to intercept youtube videos? I'd love to use HTML5 player by default but I can't due to annoying autoplay (mis-)feature. It would be very useful if this extension allow watching HTML5 youtube videos in video player as alternative to built-in-browser HTML5 media player...
Since recently YouTube as turns into quite complex website, with ajax call and regular updated to the inner layout. The YT HTML5 video player has a video tag, but the source point to an id and the video is ultimately played in a canevas. Sorry but it's very unlikly that i'll dig more into the youtube code.

@odrevet Until such time as you remove the youtube stuff entirely, perhaps you should make it easier to tell when VWOF is attempting to operate on a given page? It took me a while to figure out that it was why I couldn't get https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Gv0H-vPoDc to play, regardless of whether I chose the default player or the html5 one, and whether I had MSE enabled or not.

According to changelog youtube module is removed but apparently the module is still here: youtube.jsm.
Besides YouTube is still mentioned in README.md...
The youtube module is now removed. Thanks for reporting
