Thank you very much for that reference! Thankfully I have tested all steps that 
I've done before on an AppVM so the unneeded stuff that I downloaded didn't 
remain.

The latter replies on the thread has the solid solution of doing
sudo dnf install compat-ffmpeg28

Which amazingly completed playback support on youtube
Also appreciate the fact that the thread mentioned dependencies needed to play 
twitter videos.

Cheers!

Oh silly me, I did not even do research on Qubes documentation nor even a 
search on this place.

Found some hope at 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/software-update-vm/#tocAnchor-1-1-11

And performed the following commands:
sudo dnf config-manager --set-enabled rpmfusion-free rpmfusion-nonfree
sudo dnf upgrade --refresh

However, I still can't figure out the exact codec/s dependency to completely 
support it.
I did tried installing the following little-by-little but in the end, my 
firefox still can't play H.264 stuff
gstreamer1
gstreamer1-plugins-good
gstreamer1-plugins-ugly
gstreamer1-plugins-ugly-free
gstreamer1-plugins-bad-nonfree
gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free

As a last resort, I resulted to installing vlc and my firefox can now magically 
play it.

Bad thing is that installing vlc installs a HUGE bunch of stuffs and I don't 
even use vlc for playing media.
Does anyone know which specific packages need to be installed?
