Is there a way to play embeds on this forum in HTML5?

[Christmas themed thank]

It seems that all YouTube embeds on this forum automatically play in Flash, which I hate.

Is there a way to force HTML5?

Not as it stands unfortunately. The youtube element plugin is pretty old due to the forum software. Not a lot you can do at the moment I'm afraid.

Is that why you can't make any embeds fullscreen as well?

Indeed it is.

1. Install Greasemonkey
2. Install this script: http://userscripts-mirror.org/scripts/show/116935

I know change doesn't come around here too often, but OcUK really needs to consider an upgrade, at least to the Youtube plugin:

I think it's time for the site to upgrade to XenForo

Automatic image resizing would be soooo nice.

I agree. Trying to get our web admin on a forum I administrate to upgrade from vb4 to XF, would be so nice.
