There seems to be a kind of war going on between the proponents of Adobe Flash, something open source called Webm, and the HTML5 player.

Increasingly videos from this or that source will not play in either SM or FF.

For instance, recent videos posted to Youtube increasingly will not play in SM 2.46. Instead, an error message says "Your browser does not currently recognize and of the video formats available. Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video."

The same problem occurs in FF 52.3.0.

Going to the offered Youtube FAQ, the information there is confusing and inadequate - it does not tell me exactly what I have to do or what I need in order to play video that apparently wants the HTML player . . . whatever exactly that is!

Chrome 49.0.2623.112 *will* run the *same* videos that the others won't.

What is going on here!? Very difficult to get any clear explanation about this.

Can anyone explain?

Do you have HTML5 support?
