User wants an easy way to toggle between 30fps and 60fps for videos to manage resource usage while gaming, without complicated processes or scripting.
I want to play games on high settings without YouTube sucking away all the resources to run a video I'm half paying attention to, but I don't want to have the video set to 480p or lower because at that resolution it hurts my eyes to look at. The solutions I've found seem to be extensions and scripting solutions but they come with annoying drawbacks like: 1. Can't watch in anything higher than 720p, like even the options for higher resolution settings are missing so how would I know they exist for videos I do want full attention on? 2. Complicated disable and re-enable processes for when I do actually want to watch a video at 60fps. 3. Intimidating scripting (I'm not good with code and code-adjacent things, I don't want to see it). It's all just too hard, I want an easy solution for what should just be an easy process. 60fps -> 30fps when wanting low resources. 30fps -> 60fps when actually watching. Ultimately this is YouTube's fault for having a player that costs so much hardware usage anyway (Netflix and VLC don't cause this issue), but has any third party made a solution to this problem yet?
