General Discussion • Re: Project VORAPIS non-functional
too slow in-browser, Pale Moon presumably still uses old AV1 library.
We use the reference libaom library for AV1 which isn't always optimal. I've tried to make the platform support dav1d, and I almost got all of it done at the time (even got nasm supported too). It's just the platform decoder I have no idea how to write for...
Anyway VORAPIS does still work for me logged-in (but not logged-out), and I'm using the jetpack xpi extension instead of the userscript. I often disable DASH so I can play the video (which would often just be music videos) with my VLC Web Plugin. Annoyingly the only available encoding is 360p H.264/AAC, so the few situations I reenable DASH and play it natively in-browser is when I watch gameplay for example. And even then I force-disable AV1 (which can be done within VORAPIS itself) and VP9 (via browser preferences) to force H.264.
