Firefox cannot play IMDB video. It shows: This video file cannot be played error code 224002 Youtube and other video contents are working fine but IMDB. Chrome and other browsers are playing IMDB video without any issue. Why Firefox does not? Is there anyone who knows how could I solve this problem?

Thank you!

Is it just a certain video on IMDB or any video? I went there and was able to play a couple trailers without issue. I am using version 118.0.2 in Windows 10 Pro.

I use the latest version of Firefox 118.0.2 (64-bit) under Windows 10 Pro N and none of the IMDB video can be played with Firefox. It is working fine with Chrome. I installed Media Feature Pack and it solved the problem! Thank you guys for your recommendations and help!
