Hi,
Interesting thing here. I'm fighting with this problem right now. When
I click on the video that opens inside the gmail tab I can see it, but
if I open it in YouTube it says I don't have any HTML5 video support.
Going to
https://www.youtube.com/html5 I get:
HTMLVideoElement
Media Source Extensions
MSE & H.264
MSE & WebM VP9
All the ones from above with the blue check.
On read the other 2:
H.264
WebM VP8
Is this something with YouTube specifically, or does it have to do
with my FF? And why is it that I can see it inside the gmail tab?
YouTube was working just fine until a month or two ago.

Also what's the status of the availability of codecs as shown on the
/html5 page on youtube? it pretty much tells you what it thinks your
setup can and cannot play.
