Nice to see you've achieved some real progress with video now. I assumed there were multiple data streams for YT, and probably other web video thesedays, which is a pain.
It is ... probably, going to compromise smooth playback, with our limited CPU capabilities - what % of the CPU was tied up on running the videos, that's if whatever hardware you tested it on was MorphOS capable hardware, and not QEMU, or if that's the case it's likely % on real MOS PPC hardware?
Nonetheless, this is good news, and great that you have managed to spend a little more time on Wayfarer improvements recently.
