All the duplicate emails are using up my monthly allocation of 1's. I have

"Like I said the only option for Firefox, apparently, is downloading the H.265

x86_64 GNU/Linux with Firefox 102.5.Oesr and I can play this HEVC
Just to add to this - the Brave web browser works exactly the same as the
production Chrome browser works. (I understand it uses the Chromium engine so
maybe that is why)
It supports H.265 on a Kaby Lake and later CPU but not on a pre Kaby Lake CPU
