Tip: HTML5 videos don't have ads. I use Safari on OS X, so I use a "ClickToPlugin" extension (linked below) which gives me the option of replacing the Flash plugin with just a plain mp4 video when you click on the plugin placeholder. This has the side benefit of bypassing any ads and also not showing any annoying annotations that've been added to the video.

- gizmo686 14y agoActually, the HTML5 videos do have adds (although they seem to occur less frequently than flash. Maybe becuase I right-click and 'pop-out' to get an HTML5 player). However, looking at the source, the video tag with the actual content is populated onload, and the add has its own tag, so even a naive attempt at automaticly replacing the flash player with HTML5 would accidently bypass the add.
