Youtube videos in HTML5 Linux
Hi, I'd want to know if youtube videos can be viewed in HTML5 in Linux, I know this feature can be enabled from youtube.com/html5 but it doesn't work well, as it does in Windows. Thanks.

Re: Youtube videos in HTML5 Linux
If you disable flash in your plugins, in your profile, YouTube defaults to HTML5, does that work for you then?

It does work, but it's slower than Firefox in Windows, because MSE is not enabled in Linux.

Re: Youtube videos in HTML5 Linux
When I view videos on YouTube, I view videos in HTML5 on Linux when possible.
I don't do Windows, so I have no idea what, doesn't work as well as Windows means.
Nor do I care.
Sorry for being a few days late.

No problem WLS, thanks for your answer. It works, but not as well as in Windows/Mac because MSE is not enabled for Linux yet... I don't know why or how to activate.

In Firefox 40 Youtube plays in HTML5 but you can't choose 480p or 1080p resolutions, and its slower than in windows...
