Well it's sure better than flash video.
Thomas Stewart
Video players are for playing videos.
Zachary Foster
The future? It's already the present.

Holy shit, have you been sleeping for the past 3 years? Its not the future, html5 video is pretty much the present.

when i open a new link in a tab. i expect the video to LOAD while im in my current tab. not when i go back to the other tab and it load in front of me. whats up with chrome
Carter Fisher
it's called loading pages on demand and pretty standard to save battery/cpu when you've got a gazillion tabs open
Jaxon Edwards

Adrian Miller

Its great cause you can easily control speed with this:
chrome.google.com
if you're listening to a podcast you can play @ 2.5x.
For normal videos, play at increased speed and reset the speed when it gets interesting.
Yesterday I watched 3 hours of a twitch poker VOD in less than half that time. (using tampermonkey to force the twitch html5 player)

thanks for the link

Html5 video sucks because I can't block it like I can flash
Ian Myers
it makes it easier to find the mp4/webm source files, I like how raw it is compared to often locked down flash players.
Sebastian Butler
It'll load in the background when you actually have seen the tab once. At least, it does for me.
Jaxson James
Anything that helps kill flash is good.
Noah Richardson
>browsers have native players
>sites use their own bloated and often broken players instead

When i realized videos opened in new tabs didnt play until you viewed them i was HAPPY. there are dozens of addons dedicated to stopping automatic playback on youtube videos because that shit is annoying, now its like that by default. When i open a vid in a new tab i'm usually not ready to watch it immediately.

good goy, drink that fluoride.

after it was pushed on youtube i tried it out for some time
it was still annoying as fuck like flash so i just went back to watching stuff in mpv
Jackson Russell
I have installed flash on none of my computers and I can play video on almost every website
Colton Powell
The future? It's already the present.
Austin Morris
Browsers aren't meant to play video. If I can't watch video in a separate player, it's not worth watching.
William Gonzalez
It's pretty bad
Jack Bailey
HTML5 video used to embed mpeg4 or webm. It's not an actual format.
Jackson Brown
that DASH/HLS delay though, it sucks for livestreaming
Brayden Gray
How does YouTube disable the "save video as" option on their HTML5 player?
William Gutierrez
by providing you with a proprietary player that doesn´t have that option
Matthew Scott
It doesn't, it just replaces the default context menu with a custom one.
