Q: youtube html5 with clicktoflash
Hello,
I am a little new to Mac, I would like to use Safari as web browser. I have installed ClicktoFlash plugin.
In youtube videos I don't get the quality and CC switches on Safari with ClicktoFlash. If I disable ClicktoFlash then youtube uses flash player which I don't want to. youtube.com/html5 page shows safari can't play some formats as following :
What does this browser support?
- HTMLVideoElement
- H.264
- WebM VP8
- Media Source Extensions
- MSE & H.264
- MSE & WebM VP9
What's the solution for this?
Regards.
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

Flash is not safe to use anymore > http://www.cnet.com/news/gone-in-a-flash-facebook-says-adobes-plug-in-is-a-secur ity-risk-no-longer-worth-taking/
Better to use HTML 5 > how to force HTML5 video?
Uninstall Flash > Uninstall Flash Player | Mac OS
Go to Safari > Preferences > Extensions. Unintall ClickToFlash.
Without Flash installed, YouTube video content will load in HTML 5 automatically. No need to install anythiing.
