Play videos via HTML5 when flash player isundetected
All browsers (desktop AND mobile) now have built in HTML5 support while most desktop browsers need additional plugins to play videos, and mobile browsers don't support flash. So deploying HTML5 will allow ALL of your audiences to watch videos witout any further download.

Hi guys!
If you switch off the flash mode, you`ll find HTML5 at xhamster - give it a try.
Best,

Flash is FINALLY dying. XHamster is one of the most popular porn sites. Something has to give soon.

@Anonymous Coward so freaking what? "Protecting" videos from *gasp* being downloaded by forcing us to use flash player - of all awful plugins there are - while it's well-known that it can be circumvented anyway is just wrong on so many levels. Actually using flash on any website should be the absolute last resort and should be considered a terrible decision even if it's the only choice. Flash needs to die, now. There is no place for it on the modern web.

As a Tor user I wholeheartedly agree.
Regarding the easier downloading of the videos, the Flash Player doesn't actually provide any sort of protection since you can look up the source code of the page (Ctrl+U on Mozilla Firefox) and search for ".mp4" which leads to the direct link of the media. -

Using flash provides some minimal protection against the video being downloaded. Many of the people who upload videos like this. There are programs that can download flash video, but a relatively small subset of the xHamster user population has them. There's be a lot more downloading if it was as simple as right click and Save As.
