Is it actually using HW I do not see anything in the terminal to indicate that it is or is not to be sure. Here the box is checked and the vid plays with only ffmpeg-rpi installed: If you uncheck it and then uncheck the new Force HW if available then mp4 vids will play with SW decoding. Supposedly under firefox Edit → Settings there is a checkbox to enable/disable HW decoding when checked I see that HW is forced and mp4 vids will not play. Since the 117 snap is a mounted read only squashfs I can run firefox outside of the mounted environment by running firefox from /var/lib/snapd/snap/firefox/3006/usr/lib/firefox/ and it picks up the ffmpeg-rpi libs installed on the system when no other version of ffmpeg is installed. I can get 117 and 116 to play the big buck bunny mp4 on youtube if I only have ffmpeg-rpi (v4.4.4-2) installed. Firefox does not seem to be required to be compiled with ffmpeg as it does not retain what version of libs used after compile as I did compiling with only the libs/headers with ffmpeg-rpi from ARCH installed. It appears firefox uses a version of ffmpeg starting with the highest version installed first. I have added a little more to my learning curve today.
