Thanks. I did all of that, and I can see that all the formats are checked in my Firefox now. The only question now I have is, how do I know which of these formats is my YouTube video currently playing in? (It does show the HTML5 player now).

Right click on video --> stats for nerds --> MimeType will show codecs as vp9.

offtopic: I could see download rate at 9363 Kbps (or nearly 1.2 MBPS) for a 1080p video, which looks like pretty good compression to me.

FWIW after enabling MSE, playing a 4k video, and opening 'stats for nerds' and switching away and back to firefox (Iceweasel 31.6.0) on Debian jessie the browser locks up at 100% cpu usage.

Wow. Thanks, I can see it's playing in vp9 now :).
