I can make a patch releatvly fast, but it won't be a small one: https://hg-edge.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-esr153/rev/bdb74c45c2e1 But, again, Tor-Browser will work without that patch, just some video won't work. Not all of them. Just some. Not sure that watching videos via Tor network or Tor Browser is actually a use case. -- wbr, Kirill
