h.264 & WebM
 

According to http://www.youtube.com/html5 this Iceweasel in current
Squeeze lacks h.264 and WebM capabilities. Can this be rectified by
user action? Thanks, ... Peter E.

No version of Mozilla currently has h.264 support (though unfortunately
they are currently considering it).

However, WebM support is in as of FF/IW 4. Most YouTube content is
available as WebM now, certainly more than is h.264. You could get the
current version (10) from Mozilla, or you could get Iceweasel backports:

The backport is installed and it qualifies for the YouTube HTML5 trial.

Ah, yes. As of last night... at least I wasn't too far behind.
