What kind of issues with multi-display and youtube do you have? I have multiple displays and haven't had any issues with youtube. Be it in firefox, chrome or qutebrowser. The WM/DE didn't make any difference for me either.

This is probably something that is fixed very easily but when flash requests FS, I get it and it always goes on the right/active monitor. Browser's own implementation usually remains inside the window rectangle so I have to 'maximise' the browser window to get the most of the video show. Even then the borders are left unused and visible. Probably there are fifty different fixes available for such a common issue. But since Firefox is my weapon of choice and flash works, there hasn't been a need to dig into it.
And there would be these issues with multiple monitors but I think I mention it out of old habit.
Plus the ads or banners don't play on the Flash version of youtube. It's something. :)

Very strange; the HTML implementation does have support for running truly fullscreen. You might consider filing a bug against Firefox and describing the situation.

They don't play on the HTML version either, if you use Firefox with an adblocker using EasyList.
