    plex/jellyfin etc high quality video support

    H265 isn’t the only option there. AV1 is great and fully supported by Jellyfin (and I imagine Plex?)

      H.265 is the defecto standard on Security cameras, and I am not going to migrate content to AV1 that is already in H.265.

          Not when you are using an NVR with scrubbing and everything in the web UI. https://frigate.video/

          All in all it would be an inconvenient workaround for something that already works seamlessly across Safari, Edge, Chrome etc.

              How is giving a sober and straightforward explanation of why he can’t use Firefox “bitching”? The simple fact is “switch to Firefox” isn’t a solution for everyone in every case. Burying your head in the sand about that benefits nobody.

                It is generally hard to have an opposing opinion or need discussion on the internet without people feeling attacked and start name calling.

                They can enjoy some ads then, I guess. But it was the general attitude of unwillingness to entertain suggestions and just shutting down every one.

        Jellyfin can handle the transcoding to AV1 where needed. Albeit that’s a bit less ideal than direct play as you need the hardware to transcode.

          Not spending hundreds to upgrade my server to support 4K to 4K transcoding. Even accelerated on a VERY recent CPU or GPU Encoding in AV1 is costly while at the same time decoding H.265.

          Again Essentially every major browser supports HVEC now, other than Firefox.
