It's set to "Always Activate."  Still doesn't work
(including restarting Firefox after toggling the "Always
activate" setting).

Whether that's because it's not built for f28 is hard to
tell.  If I remember, I'll try to check it after the proper
f28 repo is updated.  But compat-ffmpeg28 works now. :)

I distinctly recall that the automatic download and install of the external plugin was explicitly disabled in Firefox, a year or so, ago. I was able to find this thread in the archives:

https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-November/thread.html#191178

I didn't reread the entire thread; but I recall that the outcome was that the downloading of that plugin has been disabled ever since.
