Since Firefox 14 it has had a build time option to enable gstreamer. Then if you have the gstreamer codec for h.264 installed it will play. see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=843583
hopefully it will be enabled in the fedora build soon.

once you have a gstreamer enabled firefox vimeo still does not work (i think because of their browser detection), but you can circumvent that by using the embedded player. ie change the url from something like https://vimeo.com/55157792 to https://player.vimeo.com/video/55157792 . I do this with the following bookmarklet

javascript:(function()%20{window.location=window.location.toString().replace('vimeo.com/','player.vimeo.com/video/');})()
