Hello,
I notice since firefox 40 that in youtube the "HMTL5 mode" is not used when I want to read videos,
it's the flash plugin who is used instead of html5,
it's not normal because few days ago I could read videos in youtube with html5 mode,
Am I alone with this problem ?
Is a bug in firefox 40.0.2 related to html5 ?
thanks

I find the guilty : it was the flashblock extension,
if I disable flashblock then the html5 mode is used in youtube

What are you using flashplugin for? Disable plugins / addons and try again.
Go to https://www.youtube.com/html5 and check if you told YT to use html5.
Do you have all video-related optional dependencies for firefox installed?
Edit: Ah, OK :-)

I found the solution : it was the flashblock extension the guilty,
if this extension is enabled then it triggers a bug with youtube : html5 can't work and it's the flash plugin who is used in youtube,
disabling the flashblock extension is to solution, I can now read videos in youtube with html5 mode

Yup, I did read your post. We posted at the exact same time :-)
I'm just curious if you need flashplugin at all.
