Installed gstreamer libs, uninstalled and reinstalled qutebrowser, rebooted system, and still no video in youtube.

The issue is only h.264 video (tested here:http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/tests/video.html) I think this is a debian sid thing. gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg is not apt-get installable, and qtwebkit doesn't use gstreamer1.0 unless I build it...

Thanks for the update! I was about to say, I'm a bit confused on why it wouldn't work...

Looking at the Debian bug #756098 it seems libqtwebkit4 uses gstreamer1.0 while libqt5webkit5 uses 0.10 (the 5.4.1 package in experimental does the same)... Weird. On Arch, I have QtWebKit with GStreamer 1.0 running without any issues.

I think you should open a Debian bug (e.g. using reportbug libqt5webkit5) and mention that there. Please link the bug here if you do.

I hope I didn't spam them, but I sent a report through reportbug and a second through email (when the first didn't show up) to an existing bug report: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=785862

They plan to fix this when they go from qtwebkit 5.4 to 5.5.

Right, Qt5 will gain gstreamer1.0 support in 5.5.0, which is due for July 1st (hopefully).
