Overview

Choose what video and audio codecs YouTube should play for you

enhanced-h264ify is a fork of well-known h264ify extension for Firefox/Chrome which blocks VP8/VP9 codecs on YouTube, so that you can use H264 only. This may be useful because there are lots of devices on the market which support H264 hardware decoding and do not support VP8/VP9. This extension has new features such as manual blocking of H264, VP8, VP9, AV1, Opus, AAC codecs and 60fps video. By default it blocks everything but H264 and 60fps video. It works only on YouTube.

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
