May be bad phrasing, but Firefox doesn’t support h.265 so there’s limitations with streaming video on some camera platforms and other sites.

TIL Firefox doesn't support HEVC. Hadn't really noticed that before, I guess it's why some Jellyfin streams started transcoding for me.

It is supported in the nightly build and full support is in the works currently.

You're better off using the Jellyfin Media Player standalone application anyway.

I know, it's just handy to sometimes open the website, don't have to have anything installed. Normally I watch through HTPC that had Kodi with Jellyfin integration. That's a fantastic combo, best of both worlds.
