LG G2 mp4/h.264 not working on LG G2
Mp4/h.264 videos(All websites) do not play properly on the LG G2 with KitKat 4.4.1 or 4.4.1. I have tried both the regular Firefox (32.0.3) and Beta(33.0), both seem to be having the issue. Playback works fine using mobile Chrome. Please also note, I am not using Flash player, these are standard html5 videos.
Here is an example: http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/tests/video.html Screenshot of video(on device): http://postimg.org/image/enohww7nj/
WebM and Ogg/Theora play fine.

hi battleskull
is this bug 1052888?
this sounds like an LG specific issue. those videos work fine in Firefox for Android 32 on my Samsung Galaxy S5 and Nexus 5.
I will try and get developer attention onthis.
Yes, I posted this issue on Bugzilla as well as the support forum. I appreciate you bringing this to the developers attention. Let me know if you need any more information regarding the issue.
Thanks
Any updates on this?
It will likely continue to be an issue until we finish a large change in the way we do h264 video decoding on Firefox for Android.
