Bug#909722: firefox-esr: Cannot Playback H264 content with firefox-esr 52

2018-10-01 Thread Tuxicoman 
Hi,

On testing, libavcodec58 arrived and libavcodec57 has been removed.

Unfortunately Firefox 52 is not compatible with libavcodec58 and needs
libavcodec57 to decode H264. Thus, you cannot play h264 anymore.

The solution is to manually install libavcodec57 from Debian stable or
to upgrade to Firefox 60 which can use libavcodec58. 

Unfortunately Firefox 60 is not yet on testing. Maybe Mike Hommey can
give further info on why the migration is blocked.

Best regards,

Bugs #909722 #909398 and #906567 are duplicates of this same issue.

Package: firefox-esr
Version: 52.9.0esr-1

Things like arte mediathek and stuff fails videoplayback.
Also output of youtube.com/html5 states that H264 Playback does not work.

Same firefox version in Stretch had this problem not.
