Well, AFAIK you only really need gstreamer support for non-free formats (i.e., |
| 16 |
MP4, MP3). In fact, perhaps that's why that 1080p video only played in 360p: |
| 17 |
maybe the 1080p version is only available as an MP4 (youtube-dl could probably |
| 18 |
verify)? |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Of course, for all I know you don't care about playing non-free formats, and |
| 21 |
that'd be fine. |

Yeah, you're right, we were talking past each other :) . |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
(FWIW, that's exactly the same menu tree as in Firefox.) |
