HTML5 only works on Chrome/IE I think. Firefox devs decided they would go with the Vorbis rather than x264 codecs, while youtube decided the other way round. Youtube uses webm now, not h.264.
Firefox should have support in their nightly builds.
Oh, my information is outdated then. When did this happen? I do recall searching before (probably when all this html5-youtube stuff started) and seeing clear statements that firefox would not support h.264 due to HTML5 being an open standard or something along those lines.
I think that there's a misunderstood here. Youtube is using webm in the experimental version of the site. And Firefox nightly build has support for webm, not h.264.
let's just all chant together in hopes that flash video will endure a quick, fiery demise, and webm/VP8 will rise from the ashes to claim it's place. we just may see an HTML5 video standard. yay to google for buying a company and releasing their codec. vorbis/theora wasn't going anywhere.
