Basically I want to block HTML5 video/audio from loading on youtube since I use the YouTube Center greasemonkey script to "force" flash and sometimes the flash gets loaded on top of the HTML5 causing duplicated unpausable audio. I already use the "Agressive Flash" option but even that doesn't always work. Currently I've been forced to block audio/video tags on every site. Or is there any hotkey for temporarily allowing all embeddings? The "Temporarily allow all" toolbar button doesn't work for embeddings and I have to open the menu, navigate to currently blocked objects and temporarily allow all from there which is slow and annoying.

use ABE to block only youtube HTML5 audio/video

basically, add to USER, something like

Code: Select all

Site .youtube.com .ytimg.com .googlevideo.com .youtu.be
Deny INC(MEDIA)

This seems to work fine, thanks

The exact rule I ended up using:

Code: Select all

Site .youtube.com .ytimg.com .googlevideo.com
Deny INC(MEDIA)

I couldn't find any refrence to the MEDIA type in the ABE documentation but I will assume it blocks html5 video/audio only and not flash or other plugin based stuff.
