Where exactly is this entry?

I heard that H.264 from Cisco phones home, resp. auto-updates, so you
might want to edit about:config to use gstreamer H.264. Perhaps this
automatically is done by installing the optional dependencies?

JFTR I didn't change something regarding H.264 and I kept several other
phone home crap of a default Firefox. I guess I only disabled "Block
reported..." by the preferences.

However, if I right click on a YouTube video there is "About the HTML5
player": https://www.youtube.com/html5
