    Run it 10 times in 360Chrome. Then run it 10 times in Firefox. They average identical speeds for me.

    Just played only 1,000 frames of each. ZERO dropped frames. Not my music style so unable to play 2hrs 52min and 3hr 24min just to see how many frames drop.

    No clue. I could test if these were posted as clickable links instead of iframes.

    I would not classify this as decisive. It could be something as simple as "Installer Version A" looks for an update (via internet) and decides for itself to NOT install "Version A" but fetches "Version B" instead. DISABLE your internet connection before doing ANY install. Good Rule of Thumb because MOST installers "phone home" in some sort of way.

    "You're killin' me, Smalls." I've showed you screencaps of the provided link installing without an internet connection. THAT seems "pretty decisive" to me - yet we're FOUR DAYS in?

    Hmm. I haven't tried that and can't from here at work. You can use header filters "inside" of a web page filter, only if the header is "true" is the web page filter applied.

    That's out of context and not exactly what I said. I "appreciate" the weekly updates even if I don't update every week. I do download every week, update in a VirtualBox, and decide for myself if the host OS also requires the update.

    If you're seeking "best performing", then you will NOT want to update each ane every week just because a "new" release is release each and every week. I personally find that the 2018 versions of roytam's offerings are way WAY faster then anything new! BUT then you run into compatibility issues on the "modern web". This is NOT Google's fault! They do NOT come up with javascript functions, they just do better at "compliance" to web standards !!! !!! !!! These days, if you really really "must" use 'these browsers', then you also MUST come to the understanding that they will NOT be able to do "everything" on the internet. So you will become like most of us here - a DOZEN web browsers installed on your computer - one for this, one for that, another for those, still another for these.

    Requires Win7 x64. Sends data to x.ss2.us and packages.axiacoin.com. "Axia Member Center" seems a bit untrustworthy, though I have no real "proof". Not a fan of built-in VPN's (too many folks "abuse" them!) Based on Chromium v107.

    Offline JRE. Just installed in a VirtualBox XP with internet disabled. Would take me a few days to dig up my old ME. This should be what you are looking for.

    No.

    I assume that it just emulates them. But that is an assumption.

    Agreed. I suspect it has to do more with "ad revenue". (ps, the narcissism reply was NOT directed at you specifically or I would have quoted you directly... just saying MSFN likes to "always" think developers are "out to get them"... moving on...) I'm not quite sure how the "ad revenue" works. But the web sites that you have written (it's been several years since I have), I suspect they don't use third-party "resources"? I've often wondered why my BANKING web site (if I allowed it to!) pings FACEBOOK. Then there's the obvious googleanalytics ping (again, if I allowed it to). Then there's the countless dozen of "cdn" web sites that are also attempted connections (that my banking web sites work even without). Another common one of late is "techlab-cdn".

    NONE of the extensions tried so far actually work to make YouTube play inside VirtualBox without the HORRIBLE choppiness. I do find it hillarious that the test video is the exact video used in the screencap of this extension -- https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/play-with-mpv/hahklcmnfgffdlchjigehabfbiigleji?hl=en

    WinRedecuerEX100 -- https://www.winreducer.net/ex-series.html Your only TRULY EFFECTIVE method is to remove all of the unneeded apps and telemetry BEFORE even installing to your hard drive!
  17. NotHereToPlayGames
    AGREED! It's actually quite narcissistic of the MSFN Community to "always conclude" that each and every time a web site is discovered to not work on our ANCIENT browsers that "developers" are out to get us. I assure you that they have much more important things to do than maintain compatibility for ANCIENT browsers.
  18. NotHereToPlayGames
    Cool. Please keep us posted. Definitely curious and intrigued.
  19. NotHereToPlayGames
    No it isn't. I run 3D CAD programs from within VirtualBox without any choppiness or lag. I find it very hard to believe that YouTube videos need more processing power than 3D CAD programs.
  20. NotHereToPlayGames
    I'm not sure if .NET and Visual C++ is the cause of crackles and lags or not. I have noticed that my host XP will always play the cited video without dropping any single solitary frame! But the same EXACT 360Chrome v13.5.1030 from within inside VirtualBox v4.3.28 will drop FOUR frames for the cited video, that's correct, only FOUR - but playback is EXTREMELY choppy the ENTIRE SPAN of the video. The choppiness has nothing to do with "dropped frames". Playback is HORRIBLE from within VirtualBox despite NOT dropping frames!

    It appears it can also be placed in the [RunAfter] section. But it appears it cannot be placed in the [RunBefore] section. Still experimenting.

    You've admitted you don't even use this browser. So why even troll the thread? Most of us know who you are. I have no need to converse further. In other news, and to be BACK ON TOPIC without the "sideshow shenanigans" - I've found a way for the loader to "copy" files. This is handy on my setup because this enables me to make session-only changes inside one of my extensions. The ability to "copy" files reverts the extension to my default config before the browsing session. I'm still experimenting on the timing of the "copy", but in the [Functions] section you will have something like FileCopy=%Profile%\Default\1.txt|%Profile%\Default\2.txt Where 1.txt is the original file and 2.txt is the copy of 2.txt (edit) 1.txt.

    For the Lab Settings page ( chrome://settings/lab ) -- UNCHECK "use hardware acceleration" and UNCHECK "enable Data Execution Prevention". Also UNCHECK "discard background tabs", UNCHECK "reminder to optimize memory", and UNCHECK "reminder to clean cache".

    I never play video on the computer any higher than 30fps! It is my perspective that anything higher on a COMPUTER is just ASKING for trouble. That's why my computer monitors cost $50 or so when my big screen TV costs $200 or so. And those are "cheap" by most people's standards. I am NOT a "gamer" and I don't have any use for the "high-dollar high-end" market. If you want 4k video on your computer, then you need to pay for a "gamer" system even though you don't play "games".

    I personally avoid "PosReady" updates like a plague of locusts!
