I did all per https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fi … 4_playback up to and including 'the last resort'. Gstreamer is enabled in about:config. https://www.youtube.com/html5 still shows my Firefox install does not support H.264.

Is this relevant maybe?

Yup! Disabling SNA acceleration did the trick! I'll re-enable it when the fix gets shipped.
Thank you!
PS. I use Intel GM45 / 4500MHD

The fix is already in [testing]. It should be pretty soon.
Edit: You could just install that one package from [testing]... it shouldn't hurt anything.

That's why I'd rather put it on hold. I'm currently troubleshooting some other Firefox/plugin performance issues.
Put up or shut up.

https://www.youtube.com/html5 said that H264 didn't work for me in Firefox 32. Installing the Arch package `gst-libav` solved it and that Youtube page now says that H264 is supported.

Additionally you need 'gst-plugins-good' package to enable H.264 HTML5 playback on Firefox. I already had 'gst-libav' package installed but it didn't help alone.

I've got all the required plugins installed and about:config options set and I still don't get proper MSE / HTML5 video support on Youtube (the 'MSE & H.264' button has a red thick mark). Also, videos get stuck right from the start and this 'solution' obviously won't work for me (from related thread)

I've got https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VDPAU enabled for my AMD r600 if that's relevant.
PS. I've used this command to install the gstreamer packages:
pacman -S gst-libav gst-plugins-base gst-plugins-good gst-plugins-ugly
so the gst-plugins-bad has been installed arbitrary by pacman.

EDIT 2:
For the troubleshooting purposes I've comented out both environmental variables:

I've left any package installed for the purpose of vdpau or va-api intact.

This is what finally fixed the issue for me. I already had needed packages and media.mediasource.* stuff in about:config set to True.
EDIT: It actually fixed playing some Youtube videos that were previously green there still are videos that doesn't play. Seems to me that disabling gstreamer allowed playing h.264 but broke playing of another codecs.
I think I'd wait until FF support newer gstreamer.
