Microsoft Is Releasing an H.264 Plugin For Firefox

Posted by timothy on from the such-charity dept.

ndogg writes "Microsoft has announced that it is releasing an H.264 plugin for Firefox. This plugin does not add H.264 capabilities to Firefox, but rather allows it to use the H.264 capabilities built into Windows 7. With that in mind, it sounds like it may not work on anything other than Windows 7."

    And Microsoft is of course always happy with a Windows-only solution that just doesn't work on other platforms.
