I've used a mirror with snapshot packages which contains quirks with this
timestamp:

quirks-7.155 signed on 2025-11-02T14:11:53Z

I've installed firefox and I do have ffmpeg as:

firefox-144.0.2 Firefox web browser
ffmpeg-8.0v1 audio/video converter and streamer

I can play a random video from youtube in this firefox.

If you can share an example public available video, it may help.
