[Discuss] Can't play videos in Firefox

[nancythewriter7 at gmail.com (Nancy Allison)]

Follow-up: I've followed steps 1 and 1 (that's how they're numbered) on
this page and installed RPM Fusion for Fedora 28. Then I rebooted. Still no
luckc playing videos in Facebook, Washington Post, or Vimeo (so far).
Suggestions gratefully received.
