(Correcting the article: As of right now Firefox has no support for plugins to add formats. Including such an option at this time would be damaging to their goal of getting a baseline format supported.)Firefox certainly supports plugins as in Flash and Quicktime, which, btw, already support H.264 video. Since flash already has nearly 100% deployment, I'm don't really see what possible use it is to cripple the <video> element.

The LGPL and video codecs Posted Jun 19, 2009 8:30 UTC (Fri) by jwalden (guest, #41159) [Link] I understood the reference to be to plugins for video formats usable by the built-in<video> element. What you speak of goes through the plugin model and is entirely orthogonal to implementing HTML5 video support for a video format.
