And can I do the same in Tor? Because it´s free software, right?

It is not libre. It's proprietary JavaScript code instead of a Flash object with proprietary ActionScript code. It's just that Abrowser is capable of running JavaScript code, whereas Flash Player is needed for Flash objects. I would recommend disabling JavaScript and using unofficial tools

Sorry but that is wrong. It's not necessary to allow that option to use html5 youtube videos. Tor browser works fine when you chose "not now" or "never". You should NEVER allow that request as it might remove your anonymity.

Firefox doesn't currently support MSE. But the JavaScript code that takes advantage of MSE support is proprietary, anyway.

How can I have the compatibility with Media Source Extensions, MSE & H.264 and MSE & WebM VP9? This is in the case of the Tor Browser

You're right. Didn't work the first time I tried, but for some reason it works now. Thanks for pointing it out! =)

Oh, does it? I guess my knowledge is outdated. Maybe MSE support was added between the last LTS and the current version. Or maybe Tor Browser disables the feature for security reasons.

So why Abrowser supports it?

I really recommend turning Gnash of in your browser. Gnash, long story short, sucks (or at least it did a few years ago and since Trisquel probably hasn't shipped a new version of it (if such a thing exists).it probably still does on Trisquel).

It works with the Tor Browser Bundle as long as you allow HTML5 canvas image data extraction (a warning that pops up when a video is about to play). I prefer to stream videos from youtube and others with gnome-mpv. It's uses less resources and is more stable and reliable than those HTML5

It looks like you're using the HTML5 player, not flash.
