ICS, Chrome and Flash Videos

[Frost Forged]

I'm currently using an AT&T Galaxy S3. I've been an iPhone user up until about a month ago so I'm still learning the ropes in Android.

As most of us know a few weeks ago Flash Player was removed from the Play Store. I personally welcome Flash's demise as it was always a resource heavy buggy mess in my opinion.

The problem I'm currently having is that when I'm using Chrome and I go to a website with embedded video its still pushing the Flash version of the video ("This video requires Flash. Go here to download" message) rather than letting me get to the HTML5 version.

My question is, Can I set up Chrome to automatically request the HTML5 video or does the website have to code for that? I checked the settings and I can't find anything.

An example would be the video review embedded in the Kindle Fire HD review over on the Verge.

Thanks in advance for the help. The AC forums fave been a fantastic resource for me as I break into Android.

That has to be coded by the website rather than done in the browser.
So, i guess its not possible for all website but i believe many website has started doing this.

That's what I thought and what I was afraid of. The thing that sucks is I know there is an HTML5 version behind that Flash error I just have no way of getting to it.

Thanks for the help.
