Easier of a solution than I had found when I tried... I remember looking it up basically being told it wasn't possible without a lot of fiddling. Strange. Good to know it's actually simple!

Actually it should be even simpler because if it's disabled and the site attempts to use it, you'll see a prompt under the toolbar that says you may want to enable it.

what you said might be about watching streaming sites on linux in general. some of them only give you inferior quality streams, some of them outright refuse to cooperate.
