Well, enabling the plugin on a F28 system results in a message saying the plugin will be downloaded soon.....but it never does. At least not after 2hrs of waiting. I just now upgraded an F27 laptop to F28. Previously the FF in F27 showed H.264 support available when checking www.youtube.com/html5 and the plugin disabled. After the upgrade everything still works just fine and I see compat-ffmpeg28 has been installed from rpmfusion. I then installed compat-ffmpeg28 on an F28 install which I had done in a VM a while back and had no H.264 support. After the install, it too had support added. -- Conjecture is just a conclusion based on incomplete information. It isn't a fact.
