Youtube is limited to 360

Post by abinet » 2015-12-22, 20:17

I'm a new user of Linux and Pale Moon (however I'm familiar with Firefox). On Youtube, I can't choose resolution higher than 360 for html5 player. On html5 test page I can see that H.264 is not enabled, I suppose due to absence of gstreamer framework (I don't need it). Is gstreamer nesessary for 720 resolution? It's kinda lot of deps.

Also, I found that my favorite plugin (Toggle Proxy) I use to point firefox to tor network is not compatible due to GUID change. Is it possible to publish fixed xpi it in PM addons ?

gstreamer is required for 720p in Linux.

You will need GStreamer 0.10
