This worked well with mpv but is giving me issues in Firefox:

- Invidious instances (YouTube alternative frontend) give me "No
  compatible source was found for this media"
- Twitch gives a similar message
- Couldn't test in YouTube because it thinks I'm a bot
- Some meme pages show webms just fine

In any case, disabling hardware media decoding didn't help. Rolling back
to 4.4.4p3 (that's what's in cdn.openbsd.org) makes the issues go away.
I can try with 4.4.4p4 too (adds --disable-vaapi), if it's needed.
