enable based on device

My 2015 MBP can only decode h264 in hardware so I want the extension to block VP9 there to avoid heat and fan noise.
My tower PC has no problem with VP9 and there I want to use it for 4K. With h264, youtube only seems to offer up to 1080p.
Chrome syncs whether the extension is enabled/disabled and I switch between devices where this should be different.
Ideally it would detect the 'Video Acceleration Information' like shown in chrome://gpu, but being able to change it manually would be fine as well.
Saving it in localStorage is probably fine.

A workaround you could use is to disable extension sync in Chrome's settings.

Not really an option since I want them synced.
No longer an issue for me since I upgraded to a M1 MBA.
Still relevant for mixed h264/VP9 hardware setups though.
