Anyone else having issues with new YouTube 60fps support?

[colonel_mortis]

Really? That's so dumb!

 

I recalled playing 1080p video on Firefox though... Does FF not support the HTML5 player?

When you use flash (which until now I have been forcing), all resolutions are available on all videos, but at <=30fps. If you use the HTML5 player (which now cannot be disabled in the latest version, although I have convinced YouTube that my browser is an old version so it works), for some videos (the videos that are encoded in VP9), you can watch them at 2160p60fps, but the majority of videos are only available in the H.264 codec, which Firefox currently has limited support for - it only supports it with DASH playback disabled (support is being worked on though). YouTube requires DASH playback to be enabled in order to use and resolutions other than 360p and 720p, and they are limited to <=30fps.

I have just changed a config value which should hopefully enable experimental DASH with H.264, so now I need to watch some videos and see whether it works.

Loaded it up on my hard drive clone machine (core 2 duo, 4gb ram, gt 210, windows 7 & chrome) and was a small stutter until full buffer

That seems very odd, make sure all your drivers are up to date, that seems very odd.

Yep everything is now up to date and still it persists.

It's a url, type it into the box, check if it says your version is chrome something beta 64 Bit and see if it says "Your almost done, just press this button to finalize chrome"

As it did on my computer

So let me get this sstraight,

thes html5 player only goes up to 720p mp4

But the Default player allows 1080p 60fps but doesn't work/ has frame loss?

[Bloodyvalley]

Mine just doesn't load.
