Pretty sure Firefox added support for HEVC a while back, but it relies on the system to provide the decoder (Which you'll usually have to pay extra for)

Firefox also supports MKV files now, which is nice.

    Since when‽ It feels like support for that format took centuries!

    In 145.

    Funny thing is, the WebM format is actually a constrained profile of MKV, and Firefox strictly enforced those compatibility checks. Chrome never did though, so it could always support MKV files but only if you lied and claimed they were WebM.

    Edit: Lemmy eats the highlight in the link, look for "Matroska" under "Web Platform"
