I am not too familiar with the current backends but there is a good chance that gstreamer would be more performant and reliable. I know that gstreamer has support for accelerated video playback on many GPU drivers. I'm not saying that gstreamer should be the default but it would be nice to have it as an option. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1051559 Title: Build Firefox with GStreamer support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/1051559/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
