h265ify
Enables HEVC support on Edge
What is h265ify?
"h265ify" is an Edge add-on enabling users to leverage built-in support for h265/HEVC on Microsoft Edge. Despite having built-in support, Edge doesn't notify websites of this, preventing HEVC videos from playing. h265ify solves this issue and works with web-based media centers like Plex and Emby, preventing unnecessary transcoding. The add-on also boosts Netflix image quality at lower data rates.

Summary
Is an Microsoft Edge(C) extension which allows users to actually use the already present support for h265/hevc. Microsoft Edge(C) already has built-in support for hevc but doesn't report it to websites which in turn results in hevc videos not being played. Especially with web-based media centers such as plex or emby this will lead to unnecessary transcoding. This will also work for Netflix and give you better image quality at lower data rates.
User reviews
Twitter videolarının oynatılmasını bozuyor. Galiba Edge h265ify için destek getirdi ve uzantı bunu bozuyor.
