HTML5 YouTube viewer: close, but not quite there
,----[ Quote ]
| Everyone knows Flash is a massive resource hog,
| especially on Mac or Linux. If you're sick of
| totally bogging down your system whenever you
| want to watch a YouTube video, the new video
| specifications in HTML5 might be the answer. By
| using HTML and plugging into the Mp4 streams on
| YouTube, the folks at NeoSmart have created an
| HTML5 YouTube Viewer. It doesn't quite work
| perfectly, and not every browser is ready for
| it, but it's nice proof-of-concept to try out.

bringing theora to youtube (the hard way)
,----[ Quote ]
| I wrote a greasemonkey script called
| Theoratube that connects to the Firefogg
| extension. Itâs based very heavily on the
| really great Youtube without Flash Auto user
| script that lets you embed videos as a plug-
| in. But in my case I decided to use native
| Theora and HTML5 video because itâs more
| reliable, has controls and doesnât require any
| additional software to start working.
|
| How does it work? It pulls down the video,
| uses Firefogg to transcode it, and then stuffs
| it back into the browser via a private URL.
| Itâs slow because it has to pull + encode the
| entire video, but it works surprisingly well
| for something that is as hacky as it is.
