Reduce memory usage when listening to youtube
« on: November 09, 2015, 04:26:21 pm »
Hi  :D
So, I bet most of you, who listen to music while playing, notice a quite high ping when music starts. Thats because the youtube page and video being loaded.
What you can do for this?
1st of all, set video quality at 240p (lower wont work on playlists)
2nd copy embed code, right click on youtube video/song and "Copy Embed Code
3rd Go to http://htmledit.squarefree.com/ and paste it there.

Hope this helps, cuz for me it did.
P.S: Reducing video quality wont reduce audio quality i guess. Make sure to change quality of video when watching other videos, or you can use incognito mode/browser (Ctrl+Shift+N). This will prevent other videos in normal browser from changing their quality.

Depending on your phone,

you should replace that highlighted in green with "/" (without "") and delete the part in red.
So it would bel ike this:

Same for playlists
