          @zalex108 YouTube basically uses VP9 or H264. Now it seems to be introducing AV1.

            @thegeneral Yes, YouTube uses VP9 by default, I guess.

                  @thegeneral Probably YouTube didn't enable it for you yet.

                          @thegeneral I didn't show you anything related to Testtube. I don't even use it.

                              Maybe appears after accessand modify in TestTube.

                              @leocg
                              I've seen MP4, WebM, and some others on Downloader Extensions/UserScrips for YouTube.

                              Despite that, the codec would still be h264.

                              I don't know and didn't tested, but not sure if those can use h264.

                                  If you download YouTube videos with some programs, they are split and the files, Audio/Video and others have to be combined.

                                      @zalex108 Those are containers and not codecs.

                                        I saw it as a Flag and for some Mac users fixed high CPU problems on video.

                                        Didn't read recent changelogs.

                                          Didn't said they are.

                                          Just about h264 onto them, and seems that WebM don't.
