I am disappointed and disgusted with the inability of FIrefox to play videos such as H264. I have no problem with IE or Chrome.

NO matter what I do I am unable to play most videos from YouTube etc. in Firefox. There is no plug in which aill allow me to do this. I just don't get why you can not support video. I have no trouble with Internet Explorer or Chrome. I used to really like Firefox but this is not acceptable. Unless there is a simple workaround I may have to abandon Firefox.

You can open the YouTube test page to check support in Firefox for playing HTML5 media.
