A new update of Supermium 132.0.6834.222 R3 has been released. Changelog - This exceptional release of Supermium includes various enhancements over Supermium 132 R3, including: (#1372) - some tweaks to the look-and-feel of v109 Tabs. Tab-specific compact UI options are separated from #compact-ui, now in #compact-tab-ui. (#1370) - a new feature named #open-bookmark-option allows users to open bookmarks in new tabs, either in the foreground or background. This replaces the equivalent Chrome++ functionality that is currently unstable with Supermium. (#1382) - drag-and-drop fully restored on NT 5.x. (#1368) - CR23: tab separator duplication disabled by default, other metrics modified including tab gaps (#1367) - Widevine patch updated for version 4.10.2891.0 Glad that drag and drop has been restored to the XP version, you couldn't even re-order the extension icons on the previous version! The feature to always open bookmarks in a new tab is one I've lobbied for for ages, so I'm really pleased with that too. It means that I don't have to use Chrome++ on Windows 10 any more, and I now have that facility on XP (Chrome++ doesn't work on XP). If it all works as it should, I'm really delighted with this!

Early tests on IG with the new 32-bit version on XP look promising, but as far as I know the issue I reported has never been flagged on GitHub anyway! I was thinking of doing so. I will try later with the 64-bit version on Windows 10. Twitch and TikTok I don't use, I'm afraid.

at some point it will reach a cpu limit question however to say is that this is not the case yet chrome or lets say the browser language, is a scriptish language as everybody can see the browser is getting bigger and bigger and has pharse more and more code the high language question therefore also apears ... it would be at least 20 times of the normal work to write the routines in pure assembly the cpu´s are already doing this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQWpF2Gb-gU the cpu is skipping commands/opcodes in exactly that way also what is not mentioned in that video, that the cpu unit can see a future command and is actually not near at all it can see what memory it accesses and therefore read it from the cache and make a paraell calculation (it dont has to be directly the next command) (also to mention mmx-avx doing that even better) the cpu that is mentioned is rather going back to a 486 cpu also the most compilers are also doing something like that, modern compilers shorten the code if the compiler can reconize that then there is also the MMX-AVX+ question, these are not made of normal opcodes it are opcodes for speed, those are a lot faster sometimes 150 times as fast i say this because we have often the SSE question (like we have to have to non SSE version) at some point as sayed it will reach the cpu question and SSE is just like a hardware acceleration or a grafic card sse(aka mmx-avx+) can speed up the process a lot so we put it the right way, having a grafic card can speed it up however you might not have the right driver or your card is not supported by the OS, or dont have a driver for that OS 2 other ways would be first not a high language (what is not possible in this case chrome has like 300k pages, or at least the part for the grafics would have the be entire rewritten) faster opcodes (aka mmx-sse-avx ect.) also i want to mention that smartphones special olders ones have google chrome and dont support some functions either a simple way would be to buy a supported grafic card, a faster cpu that also supports xp if you dont want trouble wih the chipset or maybe hardware components then rather i would buy hardware that is supported for xp --- in other direction, from what i remember xp had some hidden functions that are written out in for example win10 - xp has them but dont have the function to read/write call them so very well solutions had, just to make 1 of many example a direct access to the eprocess structure that works very well as it then it the same solution as win10 has ... but for like 7 different operating systems like (vista, xp, 7, 8, 8.1, + 64 bit) thats a lot you need like 14 different reactions ... or you might end up in solution that is not very well , like bugged, less functional , has flaws --- amd even tho they sell hardware, they do not offer us a open source driver ... rather it would give amd some money because they dont make money with that driver also it would definatly bring amd money because then xp users buy their new hardware ... is it a kartell ? because doing it that way give a other company money (like buying win10 instead or new hardward to have win10) it would be illegal to form it that way ... - but thats a other long discussion that dont belong here --- here we already talked about, a hardware is a print but the mentioned VP9 codec is supported by some grafic cards but it dont support for example the h.266 codec (and probaly never will, because a hardware is like a print - once printed there is no upgrade) if it really has the other way (just a cpu and a bios for the opcodes (that can be changed) - its just a next core ... (that would raise questions, also that is a lot slower) as mentioned im very busy - i cant join to make a VP9 codec while im like 100 % busy with a different project - there is no room to jump in just in like 5 other projects - actually i dont have even one i could join thats why i must say it again : im really the only person who could make a h.265 en/decoder ? im not the freshest guy either maybe someone should do it instead also to mention is that if you use a older grafic card and even tho you have win10, the right driver then the grafic card cant do that either to mention dx (direct x video) again , directx, opengl, can be either used a "frame/1picture" engine or as "24frames/aka video" engine actually after directx8 there was not real improvements to clarify this we have to put it the right way: directx and opengl animate a 3d model a 3d modell is just a texture in 3d it like 99 % depents not on the engine - rather on the texture of the 3d model gdi might not have a 3d engine, but it can repeat frames so now we have to talk about that cuda (aka the video/frame/ en/decoder) - or just the grafic card the cuda engine or that grafic card just encodes a frame (not a 3d engine) thats why it works with opengl dx and a normal frame buffer (like gdi) cuda/the grafic card gives the encodes frame to a buffer it can be opengl or directx - if we ask it right certainly it could do that for a normal frame buffer for video there is only 1 differens it is just not 1 frame it useally are 24 frames (the 60/50 frames ect. is a other discussion that dont belong here now) maybe we say that you can have 1 frame shot with 1/60 either or even 1/2000 - that is possible - you dont need 50/60 frames to do so i hope that clarify the situations for all the others a bit

Yes this generation doesn't support VP9. It was added in GTX9xx and only a base profile. With a downloader, h.264 can still be requested for most videos.

Yes, without this setting, some installation programs may take a very long time to complete.

I get 0% video engine load on Windows 2008 R2. The GPU is irrelevant. "Use graphics acceleration when available" is checkmarked or whatever you call the sliding round knob. The CPU is cooking. It's the VP09 format that Google invented that is not decodable by the video adapter. Best to download video using YouTube-DL Plus and watch it in peace in Media Player Classic Homecinema. https://msfn.org/board/topic/184368-who-here-has-a-youtube-dl-compile-for-winxp/ https://i.imgur.com/Bim5e11.png The new Supermium so far seems to be working as well as before.

Ok. Then I'll try to answer the question about the compatibility first of all with the example of extensions in Mypal 68 myself. Unfortunately, my answer has to be: No. Mypal 68.14.8b does not have a clear compatibility policy. Even some extensions that are actually FF68 compatible do not work for various reasons. One of them is the fact that Mypal 68 has never been a complete Firefox 68 version. Consider, for example, the still missing Internationalization & Localization feature I reported to Mypal's issues on GitHub three years ago that, however, some extensions, for example those dealing with time, date, timezones and so on, definitely require. uBlock Origin 1.62, on the other hand, works in Mypal 68.14.8b, although it is actually FF78+ compatible. Another example is the Scratchpad 0.7.1 extension. Since @feodor2 has removed the very useful, internal Scratchpad in Mypal 68.14.8b following Mozilla , I wanted to retrofit it with the help of this extension, which is FF72+ compatible. Unfortunately, that didn't work out. Not compatible. In Firefox 74, however, it works. So, Mypal 68.14.8b and extension compatibility is rather a game of trial and error. MinVersion numbers of extensions are only of limited use in this browser. At this point, I would personally appreciate a Mypal 68 browser with a state of development of 74 announced by its developer that then also should behave like its brother Firefox 74 in terms of compatibility. Strictly according to the motto: Whoever says A, must also say B. (German saying) And that's completely independent of whether I like these newer Firefox versions or not.

The query on GitHub has been updated. It seems the problem went away with a new clean profile.

Does anyone else use Supermium with Instagram? The reason I ask is because recent versions for me seem to have trouble with the overlays which should come up if you click on the link in a post to view the comments. What often happens for me is that the screen darkens down, but the overlay does not appear. The only way I can view the whole list of comments is to open the link in a new tab, which I shouldn't have to do. The equivalent overlay on Facebook works fine. I'm pretty sure this isn't being cause by any of my extensions. I did suspect uBlock, but I've switched it off on IG and the problem is still happening.

Thanks, I tried that, but as I understood, it works a bit better with the acceleration completely off.

I have a very old, 12 years old GPU - GTX780Ti, please don't tell it's too old, I know. Nevertheless, it's still a High End GP and supports all the way up tp Direct X11. Yet the video playback with Supermium is dead for me. I can't even start to describe the choppiness. Certainly works fine with other Chromes, no wonder. https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/1385

Which official MyPal extension page? There is none. Extensions for Mypal 68 have to be downloaded from the official Firefox Add-ons page, i.e. from addons.mozilla.org.

This is the only official source by the developers. Completed all tests. All eye candy in Windows enabled by default. I was missing WM Encoder, so I installed it, wasn't sure if 64-bit would be fine, so installed 32-bit just in case, but otherwise, I never needed it before, I rarely manipulate media files. Disk tests were performed on 1 TB HDD WD WD10EZEX, memory is DDR2, 2x 2 GB Mushkin 996671 in first 2 slots and another 2 GB no-name Kingston in 3rd slot, all supposedly 800 MHz, but the mismatching Kingston slows things down to 667 MHz (add some MHz due to slight overclock), guess due to timings. Ok. You was able to submit your results to get a PCMark Score. Great! Under my Windows XP 32-bit, I wasn't, unfortunately. After finishing all tests, I got an error when trying to submit my results. Either I have to install Windows Media Encoder 9 or I have to update FutureMark SystemInfo as it is perhaps outdated. I will try again later.

We will compare both computers as they are. And that means I won't pull a 512 MB module out of my computer. They are very old and are only removed if really necessary.
