 Replying to [ticket:28107 vp9]:
 > #22548 doesn't work in Tor Browser 8.0.

 Could you be a bit more verbose about what is not working? As far as I see
 our patch still does work as we intended: for those platforms where VP9 is
 available all users get VP9 *unrelated* to the frames per second they are
 capable of playing. How did that stop working?
