Geek Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 <div class="KonaBody"><p><img src="http://osxdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/flash-to-html5.jpg" alt="Flash to HTML5 Video Player for Mac OS X" title="flash-to-html5" width="620" height="281" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20270" /></p> <p>FlashToHTML5 is a great Safari extension that will attempt to load all YouTube Flash videos as HTML5 at the highest possible resolution, helping you to maintain a Flash-free <a href="http://osxdaily.com/category/mac-os-x/">Mac OS X</a> installation and thus giving portable Macs more battery life by reducing CPU usage.</p> <p><a href="http://www.joris-vervuurt.com/page9/page11/page11.php">FlashToHTML5 plugin is a free download from the developers site</a></p> <p>The extension serves the same purpose as the manual HTML5 experimental setting in YouTubes preferences, but if you don’t have a YouTube login then you can’t force HTML5 video anyway. </p> <p>If you do have to use Flash for other reasons, it’s highly recommended to install a <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2009/09/24/stop-flash-from-automatically-loading-with-clicktoflash/">ClickToFlash plugin</a> for Safari or enabling the included <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2011/06/03/enable-click-to-play-plugins-flash-chrome/">click-to-load Flash feature in Chrome</a>, both offer the same benefits that prevent CPU hogging Flash video from automatically loading in the browser.</p> <p>Nice find this morning from <a href="http://9to5mac.com/2011/08/15/html5-ify-flash-player-in-os-x-lion-with-this-lightweight-safari-extension/#more-88081">9to5mac</a>.</p> </div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/SLmmbS5SfZ6GbaOxfncbBpvXtO0/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/SLmmbS5SfZ6GbaOxfncbBpvXtO0/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/SLmmbS5SfZ6GbaOxfncbBpvXtO0/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/SLmmbS5SfZ6GbaOxfncbBpvXtO0/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=PLl2RvG3W-I:iUk_VBqo66g:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=PLl2RvG3W-I:iUk_VBqo66g:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=PLl2RvG3W-I:iUk_VBqo66g:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=PLl2RvG3W-I:iUk_VBqo66g:D7DqB2pKExk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=PLl2RvG3W-I:iUk_VBqo66g:D7DqB2pKExk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=PLl2RvG3W-I:iUk_VBqo66g:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=PLl2RvG3W-I:iUk_VBqo66g:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/osxdaily/~4/PLl2RvG3W-I" height="1" width="1"/> View the full article
