Yeah, cool, how about some H.265 support instead. That may actually make sense.

I had changed some flags a year ago to play HTML5 when it was experimental. Now I renamed the settings folder, start it up, HTML5 and VP9 are default in Youtube and embedded pages, in Firefox 46.

Code:<object width="100%" height="470"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/eAhhk8eTZH4?1?version=3&hl=fr_FR&rel=0"></param> <param name="autoplay" value="1"></param> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param> <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/eAhhk8eTZH4?1?version=3&hl=fr_FR&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100%" height="470" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" autoplay="1"></embed> </object>

Also, I've been using HTML5 on youtube for a while, how is this a feature of Firefox 47?

Now that Firefox 46 got GTK3 support, I hope that Firefox 47 gets Wayland support.
