I really like Noscript, and I use it everywhere I can. But I am a bit baffled by the "hidden" settings, and the fact it can make life a bit more difficult for ordinary users, even nerds if they don't really suspect that there are options that can't be changed through the UI. I guess the solution would be to expose this, including the relevant explanation and rationale for the default state, so the users can make the right decision.

In my case, it was a matter of temporarily allowing WebGL, before toggling the option back after I've done watching the videos. Hopefully, you will find this tutorial useful.
