enhanced-h264ify

I wish if there is something like that enable only and for AV1 instead... As it is a better format, I understand that some want to reduce CPU usage by taking advantage of the HW acceleration, yet they are wasting a lot of bandwidth and bargaining for a worse quality... We should go in the direction that AV1 become a DeFacto standard for web videos... or maybe VCC. I am sure developers will then put a lot more effort to make it work on almost all devices of 10 years ago by finding some new op... Show more

cpu usage of chrome on Macbook 14 M2 pro drop 50% when play same video on youtube

great

As an old intel Macbook user. I like it very much!! Playing YouTube video VP9 is accelerated by hardware.

This is a versatile tool which gives control over what codecs will not be sent by YouTube. I use it to block sending AV1 codec. My graphics card is capable of decoding VP9 so that's the codec I get. But the icing of the cake for a person who cares about audio quality is the option to block YT from sending normalized audio streams. The sound of the not normalized streams is better; it has more details and sounds more open. I am so happy with this option.

On Orange Pi 5 using Ubuntu 22.04 for Rockchip RK3588 devices by Joshua Riek, some video resolution / aspect ratio aren't supported by AV1 hardware, so video turn green. This help fix that for the time being. I don't know if that will ever be fixed.

it really works! decreases CPU usage

after install this extension, my cpu usage low.....thx you so much!!!

Great plugin, no issues. It would be nice though if we could choose to only enable VP9 and AV1 for videos that are 1440p or higher but block those codecs for 1080p and below.

all working flawlessly chrome 110 h264 only, a lot more smooth playback gigabyte rtx 3090ti when normalization turned off music is a lot louder thank you
