- Rated 3 out of 5by Nocturne, 3 days agonot sure when "no longer" remark appeared, but accidentally finding out it hides 2/4K quality makes it not worth for me anymore.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18571964, 3 months agoKills that pesky AV1 but it's a shame VP9 was caught in the crossfire as YouTube preforms much worse trying to broadcast VP9 as H.264. Just use Enhanced h264ify.
- Rated 5 out of 5by NBA20, 4 months agoYouTube now defaults to AV1. The extension was last updated 6 years ago, so it still only blocks VP8/VP9.
EDIT: After changing this setting to false in about:config it works: media.av1.enabled - Rated 5 out of 5by Roma Gromov, 5 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Neleot, 10 months agoPerfect. Got an i5 6300hq, was having ~50% CPU usage while watching 1080p@60fps. With this i got 25-30% CPU usage. Thank you!

- Rated 4 out of 5by SeriesE233, a year agoA must have for old laptops with no VP9 hardware decoding support. Just make sure that you can only watch videos up to 1080p.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Lord Fong, a year agoGreat improvement, in terms of keeping my laptop much cooler. Great extension. 👍
- Rated 5 out of 5by ozkan, a year agoInstalling this fixed hardware video decoding. Now Firefox uses much less CPU even when I watch 4K videos with VP9. Task manager shows HW video decoding works. It was zero before.
