HTML 5 Video
A few of my favorite sites finally made the switch over from flash to HTML 5 but have ran into a wall. My question is it firefox 38 that dose not support HTML 5 video in the H264 format and will Mozilla ever support it maybe with version 40?

Mozilla does support it, but only if the underlying operating system does. In OS X's case, they use VideoToolbox to implement H.264, which was only partially implemented in 10.5 as a private framework and not at all in 10.4.
Although I eventually plan to implement gstreamer or something similar in TenFourFox, it will be a very big undertaking and it's a long way off. In the meantime, the QuickTime Enabler can shunt some of these video files to QuickTime Player, though not all.

It's a framework issue I see now, gstreamer have not used that since messing around in my linux days that would be a good choice.
