Finally smth that WORKS! I am long, long time Linux user and I tried:
- without any YT addon - works like sh^&*(%
- h264ify
- enhanced-h264ify
- refined-h264ify
and even [what I initially thought it will be best]
- 'Improve YouTube!' <-- biggest hangs, slow downs, lags etc.
Only this addon work as it should. Thank you and keep it up!
