you should check that again, Firefox gained support for it last year.

check the browser compatibility column in the table. it seems maybe Firefox is the only one supporting it even for those without hardware acceleration?
Admittedly, I haven't tried too hard to get it working in any of the FF browsers lately...my unraid server blew up and it was handling hardware acceleration with a cheap intel vid card. I haven't felt like messing with until now so I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the info
edit: no transcoding when l tried an x.265 in regular firefox. sweet
